Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
A one-man scholarship fund. Praiseworthy.

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
Great gesture on his behalf at $790,000K, better than losing that money on smoking weed like someone we know.

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
Lol this must have been the inspiration for that episode of The Office. Except this time around the ending was a lot better.

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
I should be seeing this on the ESPN crawler....BUT No drug bust....didn't shoot himself in a bar.....
NO coverage Good on him for doing a GREAT thing! Note: Since his departure from the mother ship, a certain former devotee will not be forced to defend his boys from my media...assault.

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
Awesome story, seems to be a good guy. Would you guys give him a contract next year because he would be cheap and experienced? Id take him over Stallworth or someone like that.

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
Washington Post ran a 3 part story this weekend about how Abe Pollin did something similar for kids at an elementary school in Suitland many years ago. Unfortunately, the results weren't entirely promising

Re: Give it up for Braylon Edwards
Better than giving back to the community than Chad Ochocinco....
