Thank you again Dennis!

Ok guys, just to be clear, any of our members are eligible to be sponsored. And anyone can nominate or suggest a name for sponsorship. The actual voting is just for those who donate, but anyone can make a suggestion and/or voice their opinion!!

Cowboy Dennis has donated a copy of Shots, Moves & Strategies for the sponsored player

For a drawing we have contributions thanks to:

1. Tom Wirth for his new One Pocket book A Game of Controlled Aggression
2. wgcp (lucky lol) donating 1 of the 2 copies of Controlled Aggression that he won last drawing
3. Fast Lenny donating vol 1 & 2 of Scott Frost's Power One Pocket DVD's plus Efren/Scott and Efren/Joyner DVD's
4. I am donating Freddy's double DVD, Banks that don't go, but do.

If you see an asterisk next to your name then it means I have not seen the actual donation yet, but have counted it as a pledge. Donations of drawing items and Eddie Robin's book entitle those donating to voting privileges also -- so many thanks to Tom Wirth, Lenny, wgcp and Dennis as well as those who donated money.

Don't forget to include you User Name when you send in the money! All the information you need to send in a donation, either by paypal or check is here:

Just between you and me, I'll have to scope out the lay of the land when I get there.

Sparks and I have been talkin' (on the qui-eetus) about the value of keepin' my low profile.

If I decide it's worth the exposure, you got 20% of my action. (Just send the $40 to ScrzBill... I owe him forty I wasn't plannin' to pay.)

BTW, thanks for the US Open support... looks like I got 51 votes in the bag for next year. :)

Steve,

I guess I missed this post. You are welcome. The book is brand new (as possible) and came wrapped to you the way Eddie sent it to me.

Have we picked a player yet?

If Reverend Dave is out as a possible player and we would like to have a previously un-nominated player then I nominate Steve Booth.

Dennis

I like Reverend Dave myself, and have watched him play (very well), but I would like to see him dropping in here a bit more before I would advocate for him.

I will accept with much gratitude if that is the wish of the membership but my first choice would be someone else :D
