Drew Brees speaks out about Bullying
"I want my fans to know that if you're making fun of someone because they're different from you, you're no friend of mine."

2. Awesome!
Don't like football, but I love some of the players attitudes.

3. Way to step up Drew.
Now we need the whole NFL involved in an anti bullying campaign.

15. That would be great, but I don't expect it to happen.
Somehow I doubt that guys like Ben Roethlisberger and Brett Favre are concerned about bullying. But Drew Brees is a new hero of mine.

5. I am so proud of Brees
I hope we win the Super Bowl again, but regardless I have nothing but respect for Drew and will support him all the way.

8. This is the kind of thing we need more of. While telling bullied kids "it gets better," that
doesn't help NOW. We need to provide leaders for by-standers and help them find the courage to speak up.

12. I disagree. If you can make them believe that things do get better, it may
help them hold on long enough to see the better days.

Hope gives people the power to hang on and to make a difference even when there is nothing else.
