Charlie Batch, the capable back up quarterback to Big Ben was out playing Santa today. THE HUDDLER officially bestows upon him our admiration for being one of the most socially responsible professional athletes in the business.
It is easy for people with resources to make contributions. Batch takes it a step further and goes out into the community he was raised in and makes a difference.
Second place, goes to Big Ben and his foundation. It is guys like Batch and Ben along with the Rooney family that make the Pittsburgh Steelers more than just a football team. I hope the new ownership tean mirrors what the Rooney's have done in the community. The article mentions Gwen Elliott, God Bless her, I am sure she is in heaven. She really cared about her community.
