NFL Helps Hawaiian High School

Good morning High School Football Fans!

Here's a story about the NFL and its Players Association giving back. The two are donating $200,000 to put down new, state-of-the-art FieldTurf at Roosevelt High School. This is great for the school, because apparently the Roosevelt field is nothing more than mud during the season.

However, my thought is this...is the NFL really being nice to Roosevelt because it has a big heart and wants to help the high school players at Roosevelt? My guess is what really is coming first is the NFL's desire to use Roosevelt's new field as a practice facility for the Pro Bowl.

To quote Seinfeld, "not that there's anything wrong with that", but let's at least understand that the NFL's motives may be a little selfish here. But again, congratulations to Roosevelt, because it will definately benefit in a big way.

While I know the NFL does make other donation, The High School Huddle would like to make sure that the NFL's policy of giving back to its grassroots is not always for selfish reasons. Here's to making sure the NFL is always looking at inner-city (urban) facilities that throughout this country are in desperate need of NFL dollars for rehab.
