A statement released by the New Jersey Nets states they will be donating $75,000 dollars to help injured college football player, Eric LeGrand. The junior from Rutgers was paralyzed from the neck down after making a tackle in a game against Army on October 16th. For the complete story:

This is a great story because you don't hear about these acts of kindness often. Its tragic to see a player suffer such a serious injury, especially being so young. But when the athletic community comes together to support each other it's truly a great thing. With the emotional and financial support from all hopefully one day LeGrand will be able to make a full recovery. Stories like these make you appreciate what you have that much more.
Until next time, take it easy.
