Title: Hoopsville needs your help!
Post by: mailsy on January 13, 2014, 12:50:48 PM
I was listening to the show last night. I'm probably guessing Dave or Pat won't necessarily do this but I'm going to.

We D3 people are a special group. I have really enjoyed the passion that hits these pages on a regular basis. I laugh, I smile, I get aggravated, I aggravate some people ;D Par for the course with sports fans. I've been on this site for 6 years now I now others have been around longer. I've enjoyed the site and I've enjoyed listening to Hoopsville and Dave and the coaches and players that have been on over the years. Dave does a great job and I'd like to see it get better, as many of you would as well. So read this and if you can help in any small way I'm sure Hoopsville will appreciate it as well as the many of us who who tune into the show and to the website.

I would totally give $250, especially with the perk of a show appearance.  Unfortunately, my wife would not (in fact she hates all of you for encouraging my bad habit of watching d3 basketball games).  We'll try to work something out a little further down the scale.

Hoops Fan... that is awfully kind and clearly something you should not tell your wife about! :)

Thank you for at least considering helping the show... and at the very least please pass this effort along to others.

What a great job you guys did with the marathon show!

Glad to see the goal was reached and exceeded. I am a faithful watcher and one day hope to lend my support in other ways.

Thanks for all you do to keep d3 sports going..

Thank you, pjunito... I am thrilled we met the goal... and donations are still coming in which is even better. It goes for another nine days.

And the show was a blast... I may consider doing that every year as a way to showcase this division and sport.

FYI - we have extended our campaign deadline for a few more days. You now have until 11:59 PM PST (2:59 EST) on Wednesday to still contribute in case you or others you know have not had the chance or keep forgetting.

Thank you for the support so far, I will look forward to seeing how this campaign finishes up.

We are closing in on the final 48 hours of the Hoopsville Fundraising Project and we have added the Buzzer Beater perk!

As the campaign comes to a close, this is your chance to make your last second donation! The first five to contribute $75 will be recognized on our contributors' page, publicly thanked on a future show, and sent a Hoopsville t-shirt by the end of the basketball season.

And there is the And-One perk: The first five to contribute at least $120 and we will recognize you on our contributors' page, publicly thank you on a future show, send you a Hoopsville t-shirt, and I will wear your school's shirt on the show while also interviewing the men's or women's coach of your choosing.

Don't miss out!
