Ok enough of the Kanyes and Little Momas of the world…enough of the selfishness.  Lets talk about some good will.  Here’s a feel good story you don’t hear every day especially from the NFL.  Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young has struggled both on and off the field since entering the NFL.  His critics had questioned his work ethic, throwing arm and accuracy and was demoted to back up early last year after experiencing what has been described as emotional problems.

However the embattled QB proved he isn’t all bad.  He recently surprised the sons of his late friend and childhood idol Steve McNair by taking them to their school’s “Dear Dads Breakfast” on Wednesday in Nashville.  A small gesture but if you’re a young black male, you know the effect the absence of a father can have.

Young, said for him it was just the right thing to do.

“Those are my boys,’ Young said referring to Trenton and Tyler McNair. “I wouldn’t say it was to pay anyone back; it was just out of love. Steve would do it for me. He pretty much did it for me when I was growing up. I have a history with the boys and I want to do anything I can. I am their big brother.’

The school’s admissions director Julie Dilworth, said Young made a big difference.

“It was a great, great gesture,’ she said. “All the kids had been talking about the dads’ breakfast and (Trenton and Tyler) were wondering what was going to happen with them. They were thrilled … the boys came to school with huge smiles on their faces.”

I know many of you citizens of the Highbrid Nation are bloggers yourselves.  While I know its very enticing to blog the controversial and catastrophic, I challenge you to try to keep a balance.  We have become a powerful voice and extension and often source of mainstream media.  Especially in a world where our culture is perpetuated negatively that we strive to expose the light and the positives that do  exist.  Knowledge is power.
