Quote from: The Wykid Won on January 08, 2009, 11:22:47 PMwell, off the top of my head:the dodgers recently committed to building 50 youth baseball fields all over LA. the dodgers also have ThinkCure, which works with the Childrens Hospital of LA to cure cancer. they also have the Dodger Dream Foundation which takes current players, players of yesteryear and Dodger Legends to visit kids who are very sick. part of the DDF also includes PLAY BALL, which takes players to youth baseball and softball fields to give em tips, instructions, give-a-ways, and meet n greets. the mccourts (owners of the dodgers) also set up "Team 42" Scholarship Program, which gives out $1M in scholarships every year. named after the jersey number of the great Jackie Robinson. the lakers also do things i mentioned above...they have courts set up for the youth, they give out scholarships, they try and make sick kids happy. among other things.both teams also participate in charity events and fundraisers on the regular.not to mention, they both help out during the holidays, giving away food, serving food at homeless shelters and all that good stuff.

all sports teams do charity work, it's in the clause to be in the league.

Maybe the Twins, but not on the level I saw the Angels and Dodgers do.timberwolves are always doing shit, they have to or they wouldn't be in the NBA....or still be in MN. also there might be more incentive for the dodger and angels to do stuff because there's more of a fan market and the tax write off is more beneficial out here in Cali.
