thought that this would be a very direct way to not only boost attendance for our remaining home games, but also donate to a good cause. This is where the PayPal account idea came from, as well as the now well documented website competition.
Anyway, back to the fundraiser, we proposed the idea of having an inter-blog competition to see which blog could raise the most money for PPS. Now, obviously we didn't think we could win the thing - we simply don't have the readership - but that wasn't remotely the point.
Based on what I've read so far, I personally find this hard to believe. I'm sure you wanted to help out PPS and TCU, but I don't believe for a second it had nothing to do with free pub for your site. You admitted you wouldn't win, so there really wasn't any true competition, just free pub. Not sure if your going to do this or not, but why not have your own fund raiser and donate to PPS. You may already be doing it. If so, I applaud you. Good luck with your site and bringing in more fans. Now, please stop posting on this and let's move on.
