I would love to see these athletes, who seem to feel a deep connection to the plight of their people, actually move into their communities. They become millionaires and can't wait to move away from the very people they espouse support for. Every sports team should come up with a "Support the People, support the neighborhood" clause. It would require that every athlete actually live in the neighborhood of their sports team. So for example Aaron Donald of the LA Rams couldn't live in his glitzy mansion in Calabasas, he would have to live in Inglewood. That $4.7 million he spent on that mansion at The Oaks would really go a long way in Inglewood, and the community would get a much needed lift. "Lead by example" doesn't mean leaving the very neighborhood that needs you the most.
