Over the course of the last couple days a whole barrage of fundraisers for Haiti took place. We helped through Compassion International, but many reputable organizations are on the ground that all need and continue to need money.
One press-release struck both Jen and myself as odd...
The NFL put out a press release that the NFL Players Association was donating $1 million. Really?? $1 million? From all the 1600 players that all make $0.5 to multi-million dollars each, all you can come up with is $1 million? Granted, the amount is LARGE, but if Gisele Bunchen -wife of Tom Brady, QB of the Patriots, put out $1.5 million ON HER OWN, that $1m sum looks a bit pathetic. Another example, Sandra Bullock just gave $1 million ON HER OWN... and the list goes on...
So, dear NFL, is it really worth putting out a press release for the $1 million? If I were a half-decent NFL player I'd be a little embarrassed. What is your reaction?
Still, every little bit helps...
