    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (NetsDaily)</div><div class='quotemain'>The New York Times reports Monday on Nothing but Nets, the effort to provide anti-malarial mosquito nets to Africa’s children. Among those cited for pushing the program are a Sports Illustrated writer credited with linking sports with the effort and the Nets’ DeSagana Diop, who has both helped raise money and traveled to Africa to hand out nets. Diop, from Senegal, has contributed his own funds as well.</div>

    Diop is pretty cool. Also, the "Nothing but Nets" just sounds better when Diop is, in fact, on the Nets.
