Definitely Not OT - EDSBS Charity Bowl (Michigan reigns as champion)
Already posted on the MGoBlog Twitter Account, but EDSBS has opened up donations for its annual EDSBS Charity Bowl. Michigan has won this for the last several years. Let's win it again!
Also, as they noted, our winning may or may not have directly led to Harbaugh coming to coach here.

I believe that Michigan has won every single year that EDSBS has run this event, typically by a large margin.
Unfortunately I can't think of a clever dollar amount to donate this year. I tried HARBAUGH, but that wasn't accepted.

$5 million?

"A karmic down payment on Jim Harbaugh." I like Spencer's work even more now.

I honored Michigan's big rivalry win with a $52.14 donation.
Thanks, Dave!

If we get $30K this year, we'll get your mascot tattooed on our body. No, for real this time. We'll do it. Please win again, Michigan, because a wolverine could be a badass tattoo, while anything else is a crapshoot. (Oh god, Notre Dame. Please don't. PLEASE. You didn't see this.)
Somewhere, Damefan is figuring out how much he can comfortably donate now.
He is right, of course - a wolverine would make a badass tattoo, and to that end, I just threw some money at the Charity Bowl myself because that needs to happen.

He'll give what he can, then make a promotional video of him yelling in his kitchen.

I want to see a blog fight between Spencer's Invisible Narrator and Brian's Bolded Alter Ego.
April 20th, 2015 at 11:36 AM ^
In for 26.24.

FWIW I looked at New American Pathways' 2013 990 and there are no red flags. Salaries for top staff are super reasonable, no board members are compensated, overhead/fundraising expenses are low. I can't speak for the quality of the work, obviously, but financially they look good.
Donated $28.24 in honor of M's win over Staee my senior year. Yes, the day I arrived on campus for my senior year was the day of The Horror.
Thanks for the information. Super important that the charity is actually doing good work rather than just lining the pockets of whoever.
IIRC, they're where Spencer worked before he became grand poobah of SB Nation/EDSBS became a way to actually pay the bills.

if we tweeted this to JH how he would respond? Donate with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind?

was one of the best things on the internet. I miss Shutdown Fullback.
Up the middle. Every single time. Bork Lazer Danny Ford is a god!"A real Michigan Man does not discuss Purdue"
"Space Bitches, Bitches in Space!!!"
I just noticed they are drinking Bells Two Hearted at the end there, Spencer staying authentic!
$33.17
That was the score of my very first Michigan football game seen in person, when Michigan beat Northern Illinois my freshman year. It ain't flashy, but it gets the job done.
I made my Karmic Down-payment!
Also, read Spencer's review of the Challenger Hellcat. I was giggling like a child in my office.
If you look at the comments, other fans are already conceding to Michigan, with direct references to MGoBlog.
Couldn't remember the score of the '97 Penn State game, so I just donated a c-note.
