Special for Gordon Haters

posted in NASCAR |

You know who you are, hate this:

Concord, NC — Jeff Gordon donated $1 million Friday for a children’s hospital at Northeast Medical Center that will be named in his honor.

The estimated $9.4 million hospital will be more than 26,000 square feet and have a 24-bed pediatric unit and five beds in a pediatric intensive care unit. It is expected to open in December 2006.

“Children and families are really the heart and soul of our future,” Gordon said. “We want to be out there ensuring they have the same opportunities as all of those who have good health do.”

Now watch the comments thread fill up with; “Well it’s just a tax dodge, he doesn’t care.”

    Marc, it’s good to know someone out there has sarcasm even more biting than my own.

    The Hendrick haters will either completely ignore this, or make some “yeah but look how much money the Earnhardt foundation has given out” comment… never mind that there’s precious little record of this anywhere. Must have gotten lost somewhere in the press releases about trying to soak their insurance company for some more money out of Earnhardt’s death.

    Thanks for reminding me of the insurence scam Dude. I’ve been meaning to write something on that non-sense.

    Best I can figure Dale Sr. never took the physical that would have finalized the policy. In my book that makes Teresa’s claim nul and void.

    Testing a new version of quicktags. One that won’t push my side bar below the content of each post.
