Suspended DE Merriman to spend time off helping to rebuild N.O.

look, i am not knocking the dude for helping....i am merely questioning his motives....did he help in the off season down here?? not that i know of....his timing is what i have issue with....i appreciate the dudes help, but as pointed out, there are thousands of broke college kids doing the same thing...take it for what it's worth....i see it as him trying to erase the cheating blemish from his profile and nothing more
