Hey just because he is gone does not mean that his Foundation is not still alive and well in Buffalo. Say what you want about him but he was a class act off the field and his foundation still does a lot of good work in western NY. Should we get rid of Hunters Hope because JK is no longer a player on the team?

OK I have been keeping this under my hat because of all the Drew bashers out there but I wrote Mac to let him know we would miss Drew and his family because of what a positive Role model I though Drew was in the community. Well it blew me away when I got an e-mail from his Dad Mac.

Dear Barry,

Thank you so much for your wonderful letter of support. It is so rewarding
to know that so many people out there actually recognize the character that
Drew displays as he competes in the NFL. So often them media laments the
lack of positive role models in professional sports while they ignore the
ones that are there and only report on the guys who make mistakes. Drew is
far more typical of the young men I have met in the NFL than the picture
painted for us by the media's focus on the "Bad Boys"! Thanks again for
recognizing the contribution that Drew has made to the Buffalo Bills and to
the Community of Western New York.

I will forward your letter to Drew. He reads all letters that I forward to
him. I usually print them to send to him as he does not even attempt to keep
an e-mail address.

Please continue to support the efforts of our Parenting with Dignity Program
in Western New York. The Bills may have cut Drew but they did not cut
Parenting with Dignity. We will continue to be very active in the great
community of Western New York.

If I could offer any thoughts to the Western New York area it would be to
stop letting a few whining and negative members of your press speak for all
of you. If one were to read your papers one would think that the nastiest
people in the world live in that area. I know that is not true because I was
privileged to go to more that 76 different communities up there and I know
firsthand that WNY is one of the most friendly and family-centered parts of
all of America! It is no wonder that business shy away from moving to your
area because your press presents such a negative picture of your community!
Speak up!

My gosh, Buffalo is the only city in the NFL to sell out their stadium when
the team is 0-4! The fans cheer for their team and let the media root
against them!

Sincerely,

Mac Bledsoe

Very cool
Mac was nearby the Bills section at the Seattle game

[Jan Reimers]

That's a typically classy letter from Mac. You can see where Drew got his strength of character.

Totally agree.

[pleasesavedrew]

i really hope the zone keeps it on as a tribute. Drew is still in my opinion the most unfairly treated player I've ever seen this town chew up and spit out.

[Cntrygal]

WOW! That's a great letter. You guys in WNY should start a media revolution.

[jamze132]

We should sign Mac as our media relations guy.

[helmetguy]

Very cool, Volts.
