Congratulations to Kenny Chesney for yet another award!  Nope, it's not for country music, it's for sports!  

Kenny as a player and his parents in high school

The Tennessean says he's been named the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame's Tennessean of the Year, for his documentary, the "Boys of Fall" examining the positive effects of playing football.  It aired on ESPN and then Kenny donated some 10-thousand DVD's to high schools and coaches of high school football teams.  Coming up on the 20th, ESPN will air Kenny's "The Color Orange:  the Condredge Holloway Story" a documentary exploring the legend and legacy of the Southeastern Conference's first African American starting quarterback.  The award "honors an individual or organization that has made significant contributions to our society through sports or other methods, demonstrating strong character and high profile leadership," Tennessee Sports Hall president Bill Emendorfer said.
