Its only when a player screws up that we hear things. Kudos to him and all nominated!

Signing Charlie as a backup QB was one of the best moves the Steelers ever made, and I hope he finds a place on the offensive coaching staff after retiring.

It would be nice to see what the decision makers (who are they by the way) for the Byron Whizzer White award seem to value as community service and what activities carry no weight with them at all.

Such a list might inspire readers of this blog, others, and even players on other teams to do similar works in their communities.

It would provide a nice change of pace from the stories about foolish players who get arrested or otherwise represent the NFL poorly.

Charlie is an average NFL QB, but a first-class human being.

He does so many d@mn things for the community and just because he doesn’t go out bragging about it and make it a big deal, he get’s nothing. Just saying.

The guy and his wife do a lot already for the community.
