Toronto Maple Leafs Fans and Friends Raise Over $2,000...So Far!

my hands hurt

Hey look Ma! I’m famous!

I wonder who had the most individual posts?

You folks were truly doing God’s work last night.

COULDN’T DO THAT LAST NIGHT! Argh.

And thanks, you Toronto loving bastards, for such a fine effort.

Funny guy, Leafs fan, Wendel afficionado, and compassionate and generous too….okay, I admit it. I have a man crush on DGB.

Congrats everyone, and especially to the two overlords and one princess who did the lion’s share of organizing this whole effort. The people of Haiti may not know what hockey is, but they will benefit from the funds we raised here and in other ventures to help them overcome their devastation and rebuild their country.

but props to everyone who participated in this whole effort. Y’all a generous bunch and we just made a difference in the lives of many Haitians. For that, our efforts last night should be saluted. Good job, guys, we did LOTS of good last night.

This ruled. Way to go, everyone.

Thanks to everyone.

And remember, the fundraiser’s over but the need is still there. Why not make a little extra donation on your own?

Once again, thanks for putting up with a non-Leafs fan like myself. I’ll make sure to stop by every once in a while ;-)

I almost never get to post in game threads. Are they all like that? :)

I just want to congratulate you guys, too. That was a fantastic job and it was really neat to see it take off like that.

Oh – and PPP – hair dye. i’m just sayin’….

Way to go… that’s some damn fine work. Congratualtions to everyone involved.

Is it called Columbus Game Time? I can’t be bothered to check, but if I’m not mistaken, there were a few of their fans kicking around here las night, and we should repay the favour.

I had a nightmare about being chased down by a “Z” key last night.

Wish I could have stayed for more of the game thread, but the Olympic torch was in town. I already suspected I would hate the Olympics, but with the amount of advertising just for the torch run, now I know I will.

I’m surprised the torch didn’t have a Coke logo on it.

But I was inspired to donate to the Red Cross. And my company matches my donation, which is awesome.

Being in South Florida, where we have around 300,000 Haitians, it’s pretty difficult not to run into at least one person who wasn’t affected by the earthquake. Almost all the cashiers at the supermarket I go to are Haitian, and every one I’ve talked to so far has had family there, and you can just hear the uncertainty when they talk about it. This kind of help will benefit them so much – it’s just nice to see a community come together like this for a good cause.

Bit of rambling – but just wanted to say thanks to everyone, so very much.

Thanks for the account revival.

I’m baaaaaaaaack

I’m so confused!

You guys are the best, really. I know the compliment of calling you a class act is probably rendered moot considering I’m coming from Game Time, but this whole effort’s outstanding.

In honor of you guys, I won’t make fun of any Leafs fans tonight at the game, and I’ll shoot nasty looks at people who talk or shout during the Canadian anthem.

BTW, outstanding game last night – at least one team I enjoy watching actually won.

I stopped after the thread that got to about 7500 because I had to go out for an interview this morning. All I can say is WOW you guys. WOW

it was sure hard to keep up with all the random conversations in those threads.

Good job all.

Look, ma. It’s muh name!

I’m speshul.

Wow! Got my name up in lights even after pissing off the hosts. :-)

In all seriousness, great job by the PPP crew last night. Not only were you great hosts but your ability to post every milisecond is truly outstanding.

I’m off to ice my “Z” finger.

Fine job everyone. I hadn’t been here in a while but I’m glad I came back for that (and that the Leafs won against the Blackhawks’ closest competition in Central doesn’t hurt, I’ll admit). And my name is on a chart! It’s exciting. I joked that someone should make a pie chart of who commented and how much…this is close.

I’ll even give credit to the Sens bloggers (no matter how grumpy I might be that that team crushed the two teams I follow in 2 straight days). It’s great to see clever fundraising techniques.
