Aaron sounds like a class act.

How refreshing in this day and age.

Justin Verlander does a lot of that sort of thing too. He was at the children's hospital in Detroit recently. He also gives out his suite at Comerica park to vets for most home games.

Last night Aaron Rodgers was given the NFL MVP award for 2014, the second time he has won. He was very classy in the way he accepted it, acknowledging Peyton Manning who was on the stage with him as the man who has won it more times than anyone else.

It is refreshing to see professional athletes who give of themselves. Their gift to sports is one thing but their gift to others is far greater.

I’m glad he does it, i just wish he’d stop running self-paid-for commercials with his local shyster buddy lawyer friend showing what an awesome guy he is.

you must not have seen the shyster lawyer’s normal commercials.

“better call saul” has nothing on him. his commericals are hardly off the parody.

Loved this.....the young man's reaction was priceless...so was the littlest girl - it seems the young ladies did not really know what a big deal AR was.

The littlest one reminds me of my niece - she was very frank.

"Don't you like football?"

"Not really.....there's too much going on"
