PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- Tom Coughlin and Graeme McDowell share an Irish heritage and the highest achievement in their sports. One has a U.S. Open title and delivered the clinching point in the Ryder Cup, the other has two Super Bowl titles as coach of the New York Giants.Only when McDowell opened another restaurant, this one down the road from PGA Tour headquarters in Ponte Vedra Beach, did they discover a similar passion.They sat at a table a few hours before Nona Blue was filled to capacity Wednesday on opening night, swapping stories about their foundations, each geared toward helping sick children without neglecting the financial and emotion burden on the entire family.What brought them together was McDowell wanting to be a good neighbor in a new town, and Coughlin already having done his part.When you come into an area, if you want to establish yourself, giving back is a great starting place, McDowell said.The original Nona Blue opened three years ago in Orlando. For the next tavern, McDowell and business partners Joe Davi and Bill Bona had what amounted to a dress rehearsal last week for the staff. The food was complimentary. All they asked was for guests to leave a gratuity that would go to a local charity.Jamie Baird, who handles the marketing, found the Jay Fund Foundation that Coughlin began in 1996 when he was head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.It seemed like a good fit.The tips that night came out to $15,000.When Graeme got ready to open the restaurant, the first thing they did was try to give back, Coughlin said. And when they were talking in the community about giving back, we were fortunate that they named the Jay Fund Foundation as the charity of choice. So it worked out super for us.They were practicing to open, said Coughlin, still relying on football terms. When I heard it was $15,000, I couldnt believe it.McDowell, raised in Northern Ireland, did his homework on Coughlins foundation and the man who won 170 games in 20 years as an NFL coach. He even read Coughlins book, Earn the Right to Win.And yes, he made sure he was on time -- which means early -- for the opening.People were very passionate about coachs foundation, and they gave generously, McDowell said.Coughlins inspiration for his foundation was Jay McGillis, a safety who played for Coughlin at Boston College when he died of leukemia in 1992. He made up for his lack of size by working harder than anyone else. He was Coughlins kind of guy. And his death, along with the effect on parents and five siblings, stayed with the coach.The experience we had with Jay and his family, I just knew we would give back and it would be in the spirit of Jay, Coughlin said.Coughlin is still popular in Jacksonville, having taken the Jaguars to the AFC title game in 1996 in just their second season. He was fired after a third straight losing season in 2002, and he was hired by the Giants in 2004.Two major hospitals were concerned that would be the end of the Jay Fund. Instead, contributions increased when Coughlin said he was leaving it there, and he started a branch of the Jay Fund in New York.Only when he met McDowell did Coughlin realize The G-Mac Foundation was for childrens medical research. One aspect of the foundation brings Irish children and their families to Orlando during the holidays for some happy times.Thats what coachs foundation looks after, McDowell said. Its not only the victim, but the siblings and the families, and the fact it tears them apart. Its a financial strain. So the idea of bringing families to Orlando is just to put smiles on their faces and put families back together.It put a smile on Coughlins face just listening to McDowell speak.Bringing kids to Disney, he said. Can you imagine the look on their faces, coming over from Ireland, the whole family? NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap . "Four now," Carl Gunnarsson told the Leaf Report proudly following a 5-2 victory over New York on Tuesday night, the clubs fifth straight at home. Cheap NFL Jerseys China . Collaros, 25, was solid last season, posting a 5-2 record as the starter while incumbent Ricky Ray was injured. Collaros also started Torontos 23-20 regular-season finale loss to Montreal — Ray didnt dress because the Argos had already clinched first in the East Division — but was one of three quarterbacks to play that day. http://www.authenticnflchinawholesalejerseys.com/ . JOHNS, N. Wholesale NFL Jerseys China . Having already announced that the race will start May 9 with three stages in Northern Ireland and Ireland and finish in Trieste on June 1, the rest of the route was unveiled Monday. Wholesale NFL Jerseys . After a first half in which he thought "the lid was on the basket," the Toronto Raptors coach watched his squad mount a second half surge to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 98-91. Andy Murray has hinted that Nick Kyrgios may need a psychologist to help purge his mental demons after the mercurial tennis ace departed Wimbledon in a state of shock.The coachless Kyrgios admitted he didnt know who to turn to after Murray thrashed him in straight sets in a fourth-round mismatch on Monday.One of Kyrgioss closest locker-room allies, Murray said the 21-year-old undoubtedly needed help of some sort after owning up to a mental meltdown on centre court.Its about finding the right people to help you with different things, Murray said after his brutal 7-5 6-1 6-4 win.For some, it may be a coach. For some, it might be a psychologist. Sometimes it might be speaking to family about stuff. Theres not one way of tackling it.But if you want to continue to get better, then you speak and listen to as many people as you can and take onboard the things you think will help you.But everyones different in terms of how they improve and address their problems.Murray, who has now beaten Kyrgios at all four grand slams over the past 18 months while conceding just one set, didnt win his first major title until he was 25 and said time was on the Australians side.But the world No.2 warned Kyrggios to knuckle down and control his side of the net.ddddddddddddYou cant always control what your opponents doing or how your opponents playing, Murray said.But you can apply yourself to every single point and fight for every point, dont give up any cheap games or anything like that.Murray, who has burned through a succession of coaches during his similarly turbulent career, admitted it wasnt easy for tennis players to build the right team around them.Especially its hard because youre responsible for the team thats around you, he said.In a way, youre in charge because youre the one thats funding it, paying it.Sometimes some people might be telling you what they think they want you to hear rather than what you really need to hear.When youre young, it isnt that easy to make those decisions.Sometimes if you dont think someone on your team is doing something right, when youre 19, 20 years old, to tell someone who is 40: `Actually, you know, I think you could be pushing me, I dont like it when you do this, that takes time to learn how to do that.Its not easy.
