  1. This doesn’t address poverty. This addresses a horribly misguided and broken system. Jerry is the best

  5. “Lunch debt” is straight up dystopian and shouldn’t be a thing in the wealthiest nation to ever exist.

  10. The richest country in the world spending trillions every year and we can’t even feed kids? Wtf are we spending money on?

    And did it really take the greatest receiver of all time to solve this? Couldn’t Steve Largent or Hines Ward have solved this so Jerry could focus on world peace or something?!

  12. Jerry is, has been, and always will be the freakin’ man!!

    Good looking out Jerry!❤️

    Good looking out Mrs. Rice!❤️

  14. Jerry Rice over the decades has become one of the people I most admire. It’s the reason I wear my Rice 49ers jersey every weekend when I watch the 49ers games.

    He really is a great man:

    *”Jerry Rice has been called the best pro football player ever. In spite of his legendary gridiron skills, or even his ability to transform himself into a ballroom-dance prodigy on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, the surprising fact is, a guy like Jerry Rice is made and not just born. Here he shares the inspirational lessons and empowering practices that have helped him attain success, both on the football field and off. From his childhood in Starkville, Mississippi, Rice blazed a path to college and the NFL–a trip fueled by tireless effort and belief in a few simple principles, among them that achievement is a voyage, not a destination; that modesty and perseverance, not talent, are what determine how far you will go; and that everyone should strive to be a role model. Rice even demonstrates these rules in action, breaking down the greatest games from his stellar career.–From publisher description.”*

  15. Amazing gesture and act of charity by the goat.

    The pessimist in me questions how much of that will end up in “administrative” handling.

  16. That’s a lot of debt. Kids should eat for free! Fuck the high school football field. Feed the kids.
