Last month a major 7.1 earthquake rocked Mexico City, causing significant damage and a death toll that approached 300 casualties. The NFL rushed in to help...inspect the stadium to see if it was safe to play in.
At the time, I called for the NFL and perhaps the Raider and Patriots to step up and contribute to the relief efforts. Well, they have finally done something.
The NFL Foundation along with the Raiders and Patriots — who play in Mexico City this season — teamed up with the Cowboys and Steelers to donate a combined $250,000 to the relief efforts in Mexico City.
