Nick's Kicks for Kids
I went to the Mississauga Reebok store - a great place for CFL merchandise by the way - for the Nick Kicks for Kids event that saw 150 kids from economically-challenged situations get free shoes. The story is here and the lead features 11-year-old Patrick Hurley (who also the taller kid pictured with Setta at right). Here what I wrote,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Ticat kicker Nick Setta helped Patrick Hurley try on dozens of pairs of shoes.
I also asked Patrick what it was like to have pro football player Nick Setta help him pick out shoes. His response was classic: "Who?" He had no idea who Setta was,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just a guy helping try on shoes. Perfect.
I brought my eight-year-old daughter with me yesterday in part because I wanted her to see charity in action,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. My kids are growing up in a middle-class utopia - they don want for much - and I wanted her to understand the value of philanthropy and that it can be fun,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Whether she got that message or not,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she certainly had a good time - Setta has become her favourite Ticat player. He does a great job engaging with kids,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], talking to them on their level without being patronizing or goofy.
The Ticat organization, particularly director of community and media relations Shawn Burke,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], deserves a ton of credit for the charitible work they do. Both Nick Kicks and Hage Heroes are major undertakings and that just two of the programs the team helps run. Other players are getting on board as well - Gauthier and Goodspeed started a program for high school players this season,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for example - creating more good will and but also more work. it has little to do with football,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I enjoy covering events like yeaterday Hard not to be moved by the effect on people like Patrivk Hurley.

The Cats seem to have more players involved in more efforts to support the community than ever before (and there a long history of charitable activities by many,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], many current and former Tiger-Cats). It great to see so many of them making a difference off the field, as well as on it now too.
Add to Nick program the work of Hage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Gauthier, Goodspeed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Glenn,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Floyd,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], others. and the sum is enormous. When people debate the merits of supporting sports or building sporting infrastructure, this is one benefit that is not often considered.
