$110 Doesn’t Save Many Africans… September 4, 2007

So it’s been a rough week for Rockin’ Steady. I didn’t post for over a week, owing to a whole set of crazy happenings in my life. (Sorry; this will soon change.) Then, the Stephen A. Smith Heckling Society was snubbed for a Deadspin Hall of Fame nomination, which I think was–quite frankly–an outrage. Who’s running that show? Pacman Jones, funnier than us? With nominations like that, no wonder only one guy made it in! (I kid, I kid, Mr. Leitch. Shit, I voted for Kige twice.)
But worst of all, we’ve only raised a pathetic $110 for the African Medical and Research Foundation, or slightly over one tenth of what was a very modest goal. We’ll see if things turn around before next week, but I’m pretty disappointed, mostly in myself. I should’ve done this shortly after the draft–struck while the iron was hot. Now it’s September, and with football and the penant races happening, no one cares about our lost footage of Kevin Durant and Corey Brewer’s encounters with Lil’ SAS.
If you still feel like donating, please do. For now, here is something else I’ve been meaning to put up for a while. Don’t mind the legal notice at the end, it’s just how I roll.
