I'm sure there are a lot of athletes out there doing good but it's always refreshing to read these type of stories. I wish these type of stories would get more coverage, but sadly negative sells.

SHEPPARD, GAFFNEY PROVIDE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR

As the NFL news cycle is bogged down with stories of champagne wishes and cold-****ed dreams, there’s still hope.
A little.
Eagles cornerback Lito Sheppard and Patriots receiver Jabar Gaffney headlined a one-day fitness clinic in their hometown of Jacksonville on Saturday.
And, unlike other summer camps featuring pro football players, which carry a stiff fee, this one was free.
Kudos to Sheppard and Gaffney. Let’s hope that more NFL players choose to use their down time providing something to others for free.
Other than champagne.
