An athlete cannot run with money in his pockets. He must run with hope in his heart
and dreams in his head.
-- Emil Zatopek, Czech Olympic runner (1922-2000)

Professional sports have some extrodinary people who are not getting the press time they deserve. The media is responsible for glamorizing the bad boys and the others who donate a lot of their time and money to worthy causes in their towns usually go unnoticed. I feel that the leagues need to require each player to spend their time off the field doing charity work. They need to be more active during off seasons working with their cities to promote healthy youth sports.
