Class Act by a great group of people

Playoff money going to coach's family - FOX23 News:
"The Drillers are one of the Rockies' minor league teams. Before the playoffs started, the Rockies players voted to give the Coolbaugh family a full share of their playoff winnings, and now that they're in the World Series that could be as much as nearly $400,000.
It's a tragedy Tulsa Drillers Clubhouse Manager Greg Criser will remember for the rest of his life. “I've never come close to dealing with something like that."
Drillers Coach Mike Coolbaugh was killed when he was hit by a line drive. Three months later Greg still has two of Mike's jerseys. “I'm going to get them framed and we're going to hang them in the clubhouse forever for the guys."
But as tough as Mike's death has been on Greg, he can't imagine what its been like for Mike's family. “My heart goes out to them because they have the two little ones and the baby on the way, which should be due anytime now."
The word of the tragedy quickly spread throughout the Rockies organization, all the way to the big league team in Colorado. "


While I am a Red Sox fan though and through, if the Sox make it to the Series, it may be hard to root for them. This is a class thing to do for this family that lost their father through a freak accident as he coached First Base for the Tulsa Drillers. May they be blessed for what they are doing.
