ProFootballTalk NBC Sports Woody Johnson gives $1 million donation to help build homes for injured Army veterans Posted by Curtis Crabtree on July 1, 2014, 11:29 PM EDT Getty Images Sergeant Bryan Dilberian lost three limbs in an explosion in Afghanistan three years ago. With the help of New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, he’s getting a new “smart home” to better accommodate his needs. According to Dennis Waszak Jr. of the Associated Press, Johnson donated $1 million to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation for its “Building for America’s Bravest” program. The money donated will build two modified homes, including one for Dilberian. Dilberian lost both legs and an arm when an improvised explosive device exploded. The blast killed a few others and maimed Dilberian. The 2,800-foot, three bedroom home will be customized to meet Dilberian’s needs and feature the ability to control various aspects through the use of an iPad. “It’s going to mean everything to me,” Dilberian said. “I’m not going to be relying on nurses coming to the house. I don’t have to rely on just, people just coming to help me. I love to cook. Now, this is going to give me the fundamentals to cook again.” http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...o-help-build-homes-for-injured-army-veterans/
well he saved plenty this year going cheap on the roster, am i right? but seriously, good for woodyand i hope the soldier is able to regain somesense of normalcy and independence in his daily life
Woody's good people, last year he went into his own wallet to donate to patshater's tailgate. Very nice move for the wounded Sergeant here. Like flajetfan said above, I hope he's able to regain some sense of normalcy in his life.
I'm willing to bet this still favored him in someway... Sent from my Nokia Lumia 928 - Windows Phone 8.1 using Tapatalk
Sergeant Dilberian Thanks Woody, Thanks Stephen Siller Tunnel to Tower Foundation, Thanks Gary Sinise Foundation but most of all Thank you Sgt. Bryan Dilberian
Guess I'll be The Jerk here, since no one else can find a pair... Revis!? Really!? MOVE ON - Please... Sent from my Nokia Lumia 928 - Windows Phone 8.1 using Tapatalk
Go fuck yourself douche bag, as if posting something on the internet could help you grow a pair. Hopefully a tornado finds its way through your white trash trailer park and drops a single wide on your head.
Yeah, you know. He's only one of the best Jets to ever wear the uniform. Just because he's gone now, doesn't mean he didn't contribute a lot to the franchise. Nobody cares. Turn that crap off. We don't need to know what kind of shitty windows version and shitty phone you use.
Jerks usually come sans a pair. There was (still is?) a dude here on TGG who made 'Revis' tee-shirts: "Revis Island" and "Revis Christ" (Revis as the late, great J.C. with 'psalm 24-thou shalt not pass'). I bought both of 'em and still have them, no big deal....
And there'd be more of this going on if liberals weren't taking so much from those who have money to donate. Ahh, but I'm getting political. Sorry.
Exactly, what about these stupid whales swimming into the shore! DUH! Then we have to spend millions getting them back out to see without crushing the coral reefs or stepping on a baby seal... Bleeding hearts! Go hug a tree & eat your granola! I'm going to dump my used motor oil from my last oil change behind the homeless shelter & I'm driving there with my Earth Destroyer 9000 extra huge SUV that gets 6 miles to the gallon. So there!
