GOOD
Tom Ricketts offering a Cubs jersey & a chance to throw a ceremonial first pitch to a cancer victim at OneStep.

*It's a classy move for someone to go the extra mile for someone with cancer.
*It’s a perfect example that there are some sports figures out there who still “get it”

BAD
Colts players wanting to win games for their coach, who was diagnosed with Leukemia.

*It’s a stupid publicity stunt and it won’t make them any better at football
*If they’re true professionals, they should want to win that bad ALL THE TIME.
*If there is any justice, the Patriots would destroy the Colts in their matchup that week
*Anyone with a conscience should cheer hard against the Colts and their “pixie dust”

Good
A completely moral poker charity tournament offering a trip to the most immoral city in the country.

Bad
Walking with a goat for charity.

Yeah, all of the "Only this type of charity is good!" stuff is pretty lame.

I don't disagree with your overall premise, but that's an apples-to-oranges comparison. Not really hypocritical. The two stances are not mutually exclusive.

Maybe walking with a goat for charity would be better if it were underwritten by David Hochberg like the seat at the poker tournament.

Meet Goat, 2 and a half, credit score zero. Goat wanted to buy a new barn, but his credit rating sucked because he kept fucking eating all his fucking bank statements and never knew what he owed. So he called me and said David, my credit rating is baaaaad. I said DON'T YOU FUCKING CRACK WISE WITH SOMEONE WHO'S TRYING TO HELP YOUR SITUATION. He said he wasn't, but I didn't care, and I sent him to walk across the country. Now the only way he can get money is if you donate to him. Do you want to have to travel America begging for money? Call BIG BLUE BANK, or happen to be an ungulate. Want money with only slightly less shame? Talk to me.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Now THAT was fucking funny....


They are slightly different...but similar.

Colt players want to win for their coach (and themselves), but there is no charity. Poker players want to win for themselves, but only one person ultimately "wins" a trip to Vegas and a chance to sit among the unwashed at the WSOP....and there is a bunch of immediate cash infused into One Step.

If Colts players all donated a game check in honor of wanting to win for Chuck Pagano (and themselves) to One Step....Dan would pass out and smash his head into the mixing council with such force, the tau protein signal would illuminate the City sky and Chris Nowinski would show at the studios with a chainsaw and some garbage bags before the next CBS Sports minute had aired.

CH, I wish you would have told me to put on a diaper before reading this. I damn near lost the contents of my bowels while reading this. I seriously can't believe how funny this is. "My credit rating is baaaad" It's a goat- I get it!

I liked that he kept eating all his bank statements. It had a Gregory, the Terrible Eater feel to it.

Yes, nice job with the Townstone Goat read! All it needed was some more by crackys and you'd have perfection, m'friend.

Running Marathon to raise money for cancer is good.

Walking goat across country is bad.

I don't wanna do it, but I think "Danny the irate" gets his panties in a bunch when people claim the players can enhance their skill/ability because the coach has cancer, bringing up the notion why wouldn't they try just as hard normally.....

I just hate that Dan and Terry feel the need to chastise those who viewed Lance as an idol or hero while they were going through cancer. Is Lance an ass bag? Absolutely. But our beloved radio hosts weren't the ones going to treatments. They weren't the ones wondering whether it was worth it to live anymore. They are in no position to tell others from where to pull motivation. Should the doctors receive more praise? Probably. But the doctors (Very Smart People) are well-compensated. Something tells me they're doing okay. Go bait Bears meatballs into calling. Stay away from any cancer discussions in the future please.
