"Good News Is All Around Us In The Sports World"

That's the title of Gene Wojciechowski's column on ESPN.com today. Like me, he's tired of hearing about Michael Vick, Barry Bonds et al, so he sniffed out a few good news stories:

Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis establishing a facility to house adults with special needs.

Chicago Cubs pither Kerry Wood hosting a bowling charity event that raised over $300k.

Houston Rockets' center Dikembe Mutombo's efforts to raise $15 million toward the construction of a hospital in his native Democratic Republic of Congo.

These are only a few highlights of the many good news stories Wojciechowski covers. Click here to read his column for a deep breath of fresh air.
