Power of 10 Super Bowl Challenge!!!

[Mouse Skywalker]

OK, now that the greatest football team to strap on a helmet (i.e., the Pittsburgh Steelers) is climbing the "Stairway to Seven" in an attempt to win their seventh Super Bowl title, I thought it might be fun to have a little football fan challenge.

All this is in fun, and an attempt to raise more money for GKTW through the Power of 10: GKTW $1,000,000 challenge. Let's see which team has the more generous fans Steeler Nation or Packer Nation.

Go to the FirstGiving website set up for the Power of 10 and make your donation, put in the comments whether you're supporting the Steelers or the Packers for the Super Bowl. I'll keep a running tally here on this thread.

Or, if you'd rather text in your donation - text DISGKTW to 50555 to automatically send $10 to GKTW. Come here, reply to the thread that you sent in your donation, and I'll tally it in the first post.

You can also mail your check directly to Give Kids the World. The mailing address is:

Then come here and let me know your donation and I'll add it to the tally.

So Bring it on Packers! I see the Steelers are leading the way already!

And for those of us who don't care which team wins the Super Bowl and only have the game on for the commercials, can we set up categories for folks to "vote" on the best commercial?

There is a list of commercials at http://adage.com/mediaworks/article?article_id=146802.

I expect one in particular might be a heavy favorite to win.

Up to you Jack, we could just put a "commercial" category to this poll, or you could set up a separate one for all the commercials.

Those GoDaddy ads are amazing aren't they? I had a couple friends in the one a couple superbowls back, where "everyone wanted to work in marketing". (Oh, and mark me down as $10 towards the Steelers).

Hmm... Superbowl, Steelers pulling away, sounds familiar.

Paul, I thought your comment in the notes section of the FirstGiving page was very touching. Thank you for your donation and for sharing.
