Maxman Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 A few people have asked about the Adopt a Family Drive that we have done in years past. We are switching things up this year. A $20 donation will get you entered for the items above and the Charity is Wounded Warriors. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted December 7, 2010 Author Share Posted December 7, 2010 I will thank everyone who has donated individually, was a little wrapped up with the Jets game. But I do appreciate it and I think this raised about $250 in the first day. Wow. Thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 There have been several more donations, this is now at $300 raised in just about 2 days. Great job by everyone...and there is plenty of time left for anyone else who is interested in buying a raffle chance. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any chance we can get 128 to go out to florham park and dig up that ball Rex buried and include that in the gift basket? he is adept at clandestine activities like that.

Dude a fake version of that would make the best video ever. You know how many views that would get? Holy crap. Just a shot of a Jets fan digging in the dark. 1,000,000 views.

Maxman Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 Calling Panzer! I thought this was in the mod forum, you know in the 128 thread in there. (seriously). I posted my inner-most thought and the world can see it. I feel so violated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 Right now (and there is a long way to go before this closes) there is a 15 to 1 chance of winning this. Pretty good odds. Be dialing people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
