Braylon Edwards' Tots

Here is an interesting story that I came across the other day:

http://www.braylonedwards.com/media/braylon-edwards-former-cleveland-browns-wide-receiver-gives-10000-scholarships-to-100-cleveland-schools-students/

How cool is that? Of the 100 kids in this program, 79 went off to college this year which means that Edwards paid $790,000 in scholarships, not to mention the laptops and clothes he gave out with the scholarships. Maybe you are thinking, "He is an athlete. He probably makes millions of dollars a year." Well Edwards made $1,000,000 this year which means he gave away more than 75% of his salary. Pretty impressive. I always thought Edwards was just another thug in the NFL, especially after this, but I'll tell you what, this is definitely not a case of Scott's Tots. Edwards came up big and I wish more athletes would do this.
