Manny Stiles Auctions MLB Fanship on eBay for Charity!

22
Vote

by user Manny Stiles

Now I've gone and done it...

Here's the link to my next item up for bid... a NEW FAN!!!

That's right, I will auction my 2007 Major League Baseball fanship to the team chosen by the highest bidder. Even the Yankees (unless I go and outbid the highest Yankee bidder!)...

Either way, expect ManWags to be a ManFan for 2007! World Series tattoo to follow!!! (kidding, maybe...)

Anyway, feel free to bid away. 99% of the proceeds goes to the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. The other 1% goes to the purchase of a logo-emblazoned item to prove my team fanship! And when my new favorite team has home games, I will set the thermostat to the same temperature as the home town at game time and will even set off my sprinkler system on days of rainouts! THAT's how dedicated I will be!!!

Don't be surprised if it's taken down by eBay a few times until I get it formatted properly (according to their rules), I'm new at the eBay charity auction thing!

Anyway, I'm back from vacation, more articles to come (I gotta catch up this weekend!)

Yeah, the idea of having to root for a team of someone else's choosing isn't nerve-racking enough, THEN I have to write 50 quality articles about said team??? No pressure... Of course, this little bit of fun won't affect my normal article writing... Go Suns!!

I hope the Yankees win, and if they do, I will throw in a buck for each of the quality articles. Worse case, I might be out $20.

because the Yankees have less than 20 quality articles capable of being written about them this year? 162 A-Rod - Jeter news conferences later...

It's a good indicator of the going rate for 50 posts on a particular team! I'll use it in my next arbitration hearing.

I hope he does! I hear he lives in Tamps... I've always (since '98) wanted a good reason to root for the Devil Rays!

So far, so good! I thought there'd be more bashers and hating, but the feedback has been positive... still PLENTY of time left to bid, and for me to shamelessly plug ArmchairGM.com!

Well, it's for a really good cause, so I can't see why people would get mad over it. My only regret is that I don't have an ebay account and can't bid.

I don't know yet. I am at work and have no access to my personal e-mail. The winning bidder is located within the vicinity of Tampa, FL. Uh oh... I don't think that means they are definitely a Devil Rays fan, but??? I guess I'm getting what I asked for!!! hurray!
