Hero of The Day: Joey Cheek

I love stories like this: U.S. Gold Medalist Donates Award to Darfur Refugees. Basically during his press conference after winning the gold medal in the 500 meter speed skating, Cheek told the press they weren't getting the "I've-worked-long-and-hard-and-love-my-country" bit, but instead told them he was using his time to highlight the genocide in Darfur. Take a listen to the story @ NPR.
