I dunno if anyone else listens to KOA in the late afternoons. I happened to listen last night and Lou from Littleton was talking about a Samaritan House fundraiser that they did earlier this month. The goal was to raise enough money to feed everyone that comes in there for an entire month. The OLine of the Broncos put on the benefit. 3 guys showed up and had a party for the families. By the time the benefit was over they had raised around $125K, but the goal was $225K. The benefit was on the radio that evening. The next day the Samaritan House received a package via UPS and in that package from the Denver Broncos Offensive Line (the players themselves, not the organization) was a check for $100K. The guys did this the day after because they didn't want to announce it on the radio. They did it from the goodness of their hearts, not for the publicity.
So we can talk all the dirt we want about the guys, in the end they have a lot of character, something that REALLY matters in this world.
Just makes football not seem so important.
