Marvin Lewis’ Good Deed

So what if he had 10 players on his roster get arrested from December 2005 to January 2007. And so what if he has an unhappy wide receiver on his roster. Marvin Lewis does right by the community.

Over the weekend, he had the Marvin Lewis Golf Classic at the Shaker Run Golf Club in Lebanon, Ohio. It’s a celebrity golf tournament and afterwards there is a silent auction. The proceeds go to the Marvin Lewis Community Fund.

What Celebrities attended? Why Ozzie Newsome and James Harris of course. If you have no idea who these guys are they were apart of the Baltimore Ravens front office while Marvin Lewis was there. And what items were auctioned off? Things like a Reggie Bush, John Kitna and Carson Palmer signed jerseys, Pro Bowl tickets and a Tubby Smith-autographed UK basketball? Ok, that last one threw me off. Where was I? Oh right, no Chad Johnson gear? Guess he wasn’t in a giving mood.

The event will contribute to at least 13 college scholarships and support programs for young people in Greater Cincinnati. A good deed indeed, Marvin Lewis. Now let’s keep em coming. No more arrest this year. Not a hard thing to do, right?
