Baseball Player leaves money for Priesthood

[Korey]

[FONT="Franklin Gothic Medium"][SIZE="1"][COLOR="Navy"]I saw this story on Yahoo and just had to post about it. It's not often that you see professional athletes that pass up money to do other things. This guy reminds me of Pat Tillman, who used to play for the Arizona Cardinals. He passed up on playing in the NFL to go serve his country in Afghanistan. Didn't turn out too pretty, but it was an admirable thing.

I think this rings along the same lines.
