The Don donates $12 million

[SoUjazzfan]

Donovan continues to set an example of positive things a professional athlete can do with his noteriety and finances. I believe he is a genuinely good person.

Clear sign he's leaving in 5 years

He's clearly heading back to school.

Waiting for someone to say it’s not enough... 3....2...1...

i was more expecting comments of “he donated all that money to a private school for rich kids that costs $50,000 a year for tuition, when could’ve drastically improved multiple inner city public schools”.

I think it’s cool either way to be clear

Donovan is generous and impressive.

Lol, I did see that as a sticking point on Twitter for some.

I saw someone on facebook saying that he is only doing it for the tax write off.

They don’t know what a write-off is.

They don’t know what a write-off is.

To piggy back off this, another pet peeve is how many people really don’t understand tax brackets and make insanely idiotic decisions based off that flawed understanding. Maybe @Handlogten's Heros can tell us some of his pet peeves so I can stop doing any of these idiotic things myself.

Yeah, there were several people, quite a few from Connecticut on Twitter I saw saying that “rich private school doesn’t need it”. The point they seem to be missing is the fact he’s donating it to a gym, and in the form of scholarships so that people can attend the place and get that good of an education. I saw a few with the “tax write-off” thing too lol.

Ohhh.... I bet those comments from Connecticut are going to make him reconsider the Knicks.

Looks like Donovan will be opting in.
