The man is giving money to his charity. How should he act?

Re: Darrell Green Apperence Tonight
 

Try asking Green for an autograph w/o giving money to his charity.
Better yet, try to get Green to come to any event that doesnt have to do with HIS charity(even if the even is for kids, skins fans, other charities). He only cares about his charity, and expanding that.

Don't get me wrong, I love what Green did on the field, I have his jersey all that good stuff. He rarely signed/signs stuff for fans, even if they are hardcore.

It is great that he his charity helps people, but it still doesnt mean that he cant be a jerk off the field.

Give the man his money. Get your autograph.

He gets what he wants. You get what you want and everyone is a winner!

I dont really know how much he cares about giving, or about the fans. I honestly think he cares about himself at times.

Anyways, this isn't just my opinion.

Like I said, you obviously haven't met him. Most of the bell ringers do that bc they care about people, not about how the Salvation Army looks.

Green only gives a damn about his name and his charity. It is great he is giving back, I am all for that. He is doing in the wrong way, and he doesn't give crap if it doesn't have anything to do with him.

I guess everyone's experience is different. I got his autograph back in '88 as he came out of Redskins Park after practice. while he wasn't bouncing off the walls to give me his autograph, he did give it to me and didn't ask for a donantion. More recently, a good friend of mine who is his neighbor got him to sign a ball for me the year after he retired (so I guess '03?) and my friend sent it to me. No donations were asked for the autograph to the best of my knowledge.
