It is great to hear good news from the NFL, the Miami Dolphins, and the world of sports. The lessons to be learned from this article are that not all of the sports personalities are egoists. Many of them have given back to their communities and have helped others in time of need.
The personalities of the NFL have helped in times of disaster with one of the examples being Hurricane Katrina. There have been others who have helped in schools, hospitals, and other areas.
The good deeds of sports personalities deserve to receive as much publicity as the negative deeds. The underwriter hopes one day to see more good publicity of sports personalities helping their community and fewer scandals.
