That's an interesting idea, I would imagine that if the team becomes disheartened then they might not play very well as a team. (e.g. missing a few little details like throwing to the right cutoff man, etc.) Same thing with a player going to the press and complaining like David Wells did with the Sox this year. I think that could hurt team morale. I'm not sure if going to help parapelegic kids would raise it any though, the way I see it, one of hte only things that can improve team morale is winning or maybe that hated division rival losing.
