Little known story: A couple of weeks ago Cory Raymer's wife lost three liters of blood after her fallopian tube ruptured. She was very near death, Joe Gibbs had Raymer flown out to Colorado on one of his Joe Gibbs Racing planes so he could be with her and their kids. A nice touch. Fortunately, she's all fine now

I remember one time many years back Joe Dumars talked about his reputation for being such a good guy surrounded by the Bad Boy Pistons and he said basically "When all is said and done, if the best thing that can be said about me is that I was a good player, then I've done something wrong with my life as a whole" That always stood out for me. I don't expect these pro sports figures to be role models. But it's always nice when they take on that responsibility of being better people than players/owners/coaches.
