Marques Colston Does it Again

Marques Colston has long been adored for Saints fans. He’s one of the team’s top wide receivers. He’s the author of his own children’s book. And he looks like this in a bathtub.

Yet even with all that, Colston has found a way to out-marvelous himself. Today he’s hand-delivering a check for $103,000 to Children’s Hospital of New Orleans. The money will be put toward the purchase of a portable X-ray system for infants in the Neonatal ICU. A hospital spokesman told nola.com that the unit would help drastically reduce the number of newborn’s exposed to radiation.

So in case you were wondering, there are still some good-guys left in the NFL.

"A Veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" for an amount of "up to and including my life."

When you are surrounded by gentlemen there is a better chance of being a gentleman.... That is not specific to Colston.

This is how a real receiver should carry himself, not all that drama and bs. Roddy White and some other receivers should all take notes on how to be classy from Marques.


The end is nigh

Re: Marques Colston Does it Again

Isnt it weird that when you act a fool and are a diva, you get media coverage. When people like Colston do charitable things like this, they tend to look the opposite direction. I truly dont get?

At any rate, way to go man and keep showing class Colston!
