The Harrington Family Foundation

...Nobody really knows how it will end up for David Dunn and his Athletes First firm in its ugly legal battle with Leigh Steinberg. But Dunn, who cornered five of the top 42 players in the draft, has done quite a job of selecting high-character clients, from Drew Bledsoe to the Patriots' Je'Rod Cherry. ''He's one of the most honorable guys in the agent profession,'' said one NFC cap man. ''You know when you're dealing with David, there's no b.s. There are no games. He's tough but he's fair, and I think everyone appreciates that. I know there are a lot of people in the NFL who hope that case gets overturned in appeal.'' One guy to watch in the Dunn stable is Detroit quarterback Joey Harrington, who recently established the Harrington Family Foundation, a nonprofit organization that donated $250,000 to his high school, Central Catholic in Portland, Ore., to install FieldTurf for the football and soccer fields. Harrington also will announce at a June 16 press conference that he has turned the 100-foot-by-80-foot ''Joey Heisman'' billboard that was erected in Manhattan into memorabilia pieces that will be sold to create a $250,000 Joey Harrington Scholarship Fund. This will provide scholarships for underprivileged students to attend the University of Oregon's Business School. The foundation will stage a June 26 concert in Portland featuring Jason Mraz and Blues Traveler. Harrington, a skilled musician, will jam with both as he raises money for the Shriners Hospital in Portland. Sounds like Theo Epstein. Brian Murphy, one of Harrington's Athletes First reps, said, ''Joey is as competitive at giving back to his community as he is on the football field. He is a young man who is completely driven to making other people's lives better. He is going to do great things for the Lions on the field, but his real impact in life will come from all the great charitable work that he will do both during and after his career.''...
