God bless us, every one!

Christmas is a great time of year for most of us. Seeing the family. The food. Appreciating what you have and giving gifts to the people you love to show them what they mean to you. Friends you haven’t seen all year. Hunkering down with everyone and watching the classic Christmas movies. And, of course, nothing beats a good old-fashioned New England White Christmas.

For families going through some tough times, though, the holidays can be absolutely brutal. And in a line that I honestly never thought I would type, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has brought pure, unabashed joy to a Patriots fan suffering from brain cancer - all with what the kids call a “Random Act of Kindness”.
