The best part of it all is that he asked for no fanfare he simply did it. No news conference, nothing of the sort. It was the Red Cross that actually announced it.

If you follow his twitter, he just seems like a normal guy. Fame and fortune don't seem to have made him lose touch.

Someone needs to clue these two in on how undeserving those people actually are.

After losing in the playoffs too. Wow not many people would have done that. But I am glad that he did.

(36,974 posts)8. I was upset Sunday when Trace Atkins beat Penn Gillette on Celeb Apprentice...
But Trace's charity was The Red Cross, so the $600,000+ he won will be going to them at a good time.
I still sorta wish Penn had won though for the local charity he was playing for because they don't get the big donations like the Red Cross does.
