Since dBunch brought up a bad guy in sports, I had to counter his attack with some good guys!

The Sporting News selects 99 "Good Guys in Sports" each year and this year the Kansas City Chiefs had four players on this "team." All of them are pretty good football players, too. The top "good guy" is Warrick Dunn, a player who grew up in my hometown, Baton Rouge. I think I've mentioned him before and he is truly a class act.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Trent Green, TE Tony Gonzalez, FB Tony Richardson, and G Will Shields have all been named by The Sporting News (TSN) some of the top “Good Guys in Sports.” For the fifth consecutive year, TSN selected 99 athletes in the five major sports who are dedicated to civic responsibility and character. The publication also acknowledges the top overall individuals in each of their respective sports. All of the athletes were chosen because they exhibited a big heart, they cared more about others than themselves, and they spent both time as well as money in a commitment to the community through their acts of charity. The top Good Guy in sports is the Atlanta Falcons Warrick Dunn. The feature naming the athletes appears in TSN’s special July 8th issue that is on sale now.
