NZFalcon 2,271 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Under normal donating rules I agree with this but this is more about the gesture. I would want the money going to buying plasma tvs for New Zealand Falcons supporters but as long as it is a reasonable charity I am good with wherever it goes.Fixed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tandy 18,249 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I would suggest one of the charities our guys support - maybe we could list them and vote on it or something.I know the NFL donates all the fine money to four foundations - the Brian Piccolo Cancer Fund, the Vincent T. Lombardi Cancer Research Center, ALSO Neuromuscular Research Foundation and the NFLPA Player Assistance Trust which helps the retired players and their families.I would certainly be happy with any children's cause - such as St Jude or Scottish Rite or something of that nature.Anyway - we know the money will be going to a good cause - so I'm not afraid to donate to show my support. birdofprey2 and Falcons_LIFE 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Finally 2,903 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 We should leave this thread pinned up here from now on. We can all hang out up here and secretly discuss football safely above the trolls, tantrum throwers, and realists. This is probably the most fun I have ever had here. 21 Falcon and birdofprey2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JRid 800 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I'm risking looking really dumb here, but does anybody know why I can't get paypal to work? I put in an amount and hit update amt. but it never updates. I tried many times and waited for over 10 minutes each time, but nothing changed. It wont let me log in without an amt. so I'm not sure what to do. I even went straight to paypal and logged in but then I couldn't find anything under falcons coach smith or anything close to that. I've only used PayPal one other time so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.It could be because my computer is doing weird stuff today. Between getting my computer on track and paypal I've spent the last 2 and a half hours trying to figure this out. I've never tried so hard to give money away. Only for you Smitty!!

JRid 800 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 try logging in first, i had a similar problem and just logged in beforehand.Thanks, but I tried it several times and it says I need an amount greater than zero, or something like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
