Baltimore Orioles Soundoff

Yes, Baltimore won decidedly 7-0 last night. Bruce Chen pitched 8 strong innings of 2-hit ball. That was impressive.

But, I would like to take this post and dedicate it to my Alma Mater, the University of Florida. I've never been more proud to call myself a Gator as I am right now.

Everyone knows about the devastation that was Hurricane Katrina. People are giving back now. Donations are coming in from every direction.

Four major sports organizations have contributed over $50,000 to relief efforts so far. Here is the list:
1) The National Football League contributed $1,000,000
2) The New York Yankees contributed $1,000,000
3) The University of Florida contributed $75,000
4) Baron Davis contributed $50,000

I can not begin to describe how proud I feel that the University of Florida is the first and only school to contribute so far. The Gators are familiar with Hurricanes and they know how important it is to help out those in need.

I am more proud of my school now, than I ever could be, no matter what National Championship they could win.
