Dunlap Treats Women With Breast Cancer & Survivors To Spa Day! - BFritz21 - 09-30-2015 Carlos Dunlap lost his great aunt and his mother to breast cancer, so he's giving back and giving them a day of relaxation and enjoyment: Quote:With such a first-hand understanding of the day-to-day challenges that breast cancer sufferers go through, Dunlap decided part of his foundation's mission ought to hinge on making life, even for one night, comfortable for those who have been through their respective battles with the disease, and those who continue to fight. I love this because we have players and a team with high character that are all about our fans and about giving back to the community, even if the people that they're helping don't give a shit about football or the team. He also realizes that there's people going through such trauma and difficult times in the world that his, along with a lot of us, have life pretty good. I love that this comes at a time when we're 3-0 because, had this been 2005 or any of those years, our players would be out at bars and clubs celebrating like they're on top of the world, but this team is concerned with other people, living good lives, and focusing on the next week of football. It's a GREAT time to in Cincinnati with an UNBELIEVABLE team, on and off the field!

My mother in law, is a breast cancer survivor, so stories like this one touch close to home, with me. She is a huge NASCAR fan, and they do a lot for the breast cancer survivors. She gets free tickets to some selected races each year, gets invited to paint the start/finish line at a race each year, and has also been blessed with the opportunity to meet several of the drivers. Not sure if the NFL does similar fashion, but it certainly is nice to see the news of one of my favorite Bengals doing such a kind gesture. RE: Dunlap Treats Women With Breast Cancer & Survivors To Spa Day! - GreenCornBengal - 09-30-2015 Can't argue that the Bengals have a high class organization filled with high class characters, something I can back regardless of if the team is winning or losing. ![]() RE: Dunlap Treats Women With Breast Cancer & Survivors To Spa Day! - WhoDeyWho - 09-30-2015 (09-30-2015, 06:30 PM)BFritz21 Wrote: Carlos Dunlap lost his great aunt and his mother to breast cancer, so he's giving back and giving them a day of relaxation and enjoyment: Great story.

Very cool of NASCAR, didn't know they did that. And I think the NFL does support at least as far as visibility, but hopefully it's more than just that. |
