Remember how I said that I like basketball more than football? Well, it was only a matter of time before the NBA (or at least one NBA team) stepped up to the plate.

The Boston Celtics just visited the White House and, aside from presenting President Bush with a #43 jersey, they also announced a donation of $100,000 to the Disaster Relief Fund. See the video here.

Portland Trail Blazers — don’t let the Celtics school you when it comes to compassion. We’d love to see you guys show the rest of the NBA that you really are the best in the west!
