    He definitely could have said some things better. I don't think much of the "right direction" we have moved in since Obama took office. I am going to give him a little bit of a break considering what he faced when he broke Babe's record. I disagree with his take on Republicans having much success in keeping Obama's feet in the mud (they've actually been rather hapless) and I do think we have moved a long way from where we were... though in many ways, the wrong way.

    Just thought about both Tim Duncan and Dirk Nowitski (they are actually playing right now) I'd throw in Steve Nash too.

    Didier Drogba renegotiated his contract to get 5 million more a year. He used that 5 million to build hospitals and schools in his home country (I know 5 million isn't that much, but that is only the tip of the iceburg to what he gives).

    David Beckham got a $1_ _ million dollar contract when he joined PSG in France. He dontaed that entire salary. (There is some catch, tax credits).

    7'6" Manute Bol spent much of the money he made during a 10-year NBA career supporting various causes related to the war-ravaged nation of his birth, Sudan.
