We hear so much negative about professional athletes I thought a little positvie would be good. A group of NFL players are touring Afghanistan to help raise morale, among our troops over there. Sports Illustrated Columnist Peter King, is also participating on the tour, below is a link to the on-line diary King is keeping about the experience. It is well worth taking a few minutes to read and proof that not all professional athleltes are spoiled prima donnas. some do care and are willing to give back to their country.
