Ray Rice has a purpose in the NFL: picking up tons of yards and helping the Ravens make another deep playoff run.
But Rice has goals off the field too. One of the biggest ones: putting a stop to bullying.
“Everyone is affected by bullying," Rice says. "It can damage, change or even end a life and there is no excuse for it – ever. I want to encourage kids to be leaders, not followers, and to reach out to someone who may need a friend. It’s so important to be kind to one another, and I will do my part to say that loud and often.”
Rice is one of the athletes and stars who are teaming up with design online custom t-shirt company CustomInk for their “Be Good to Each Other” campaign. At the bottom of this story you can check out the shirt that Rice himself designed.

Movie star Brandon Routh isn't exactly a lacrosse veteran. He grew up in Iowa as a soccer player, getting only a taste of lax during gym class.
"We only had a couple days of a lacrosse segment, using plastic sticks," he remembers. "But we ran around and had a good time, and I loved it!"
With that in mind, he couldn't pass on a chance to star in the upcoming lacrosse film Crooked Arrows. Routh plays the role of Joe Logan, a mixed-blood Native American who returns home to coach his reservation’s high school lacrosse team, which competes against the better equipped and better trained players of the elite Prep School League.

The film deals with lacrosse's Native Americans roots, also important to Routh, who is a small part Native American.

"I had a couple months to perfect my shot," he says. "The idea was to make it look like I had been playing for years, and I think I did alright with that."
Get to know Routh a little better as he takes the answers the Movie Star version of 10 Questions... More »
