Great example for everyone in and out of the NFL.

Jim Irsay would give $1 and spend $10,000 issuing a press release.

The fact is it is and he will be collecting the max. amount off his income tax – believe me. Still a great cause.

Same Red Cross charging $1 for coffee

Should’ve donated to the salvation Army instead. We all know the lack of help the Red Cross gives (9/11) they rather take blood and donations than give a hand

We are also proud to say you are a Packer. Earlier post had it right, time to step up the rest of you wealthy sports and entertainment types, you know who you are.

Hope this disaster relief works out better than things did in Jamaica. All the money that was devoted to recovery there and years later they’ve still got displaced people living in tents. That really soured me on international or even national drives. I only donate now if it’s local or if I can mail directly to the individual(s).”

Bro, I’m from Jamaica and was just there in August. What displaced people in tents are you talking about? You mean Haiti? Get your Caribbean island right.

Not many, but some.

Walks the walk and talks the talk. Even Bears and Vikings fans will be sad when he retires.

Even a Bear fan can appreciate this from the enemy.

Nice job Charles Woodson !

Wow, what a guy!

I hope Woodson will play forever so he can keep giving forever!

You have long been a classy guy. Great, great player. I am a life long Giants fan and I loved when he gave a fist bumb to Nicks after getting beat for a one handed touchdown. This is the cherry on the cake. Lots of respect to him. Green Bay fans, you are lucky to have him.

Unfortunately all that money will not reach those in need because, of greedy people affiliated with groups like the red cross.

Leading by example. I may disagree with his politics, but he obviously had a great role model in his mother.

Deangelo Hall-THIS is a great guy. Take some notes. Not only is he a great guy, but can still run rings around you as a player!

How bout some NY millionaires help out some of their own kind who have made them rich?

Literally thousands of people stranded outside their homes with no water in food. This 100K will feed hundreds of families. FOLLOW SUIT NY/rest of professional sport players.
