Around SBN: Celtics, Heat Score On Purpose In Super Sunday Wins

A Special Christmas Gift for Jeff Fisher

We started a little collection around these parts about a month ago to help Coach Fisher feel like a winner this Christmas.  The response was awesome, and the donations totaled $96.92.  Gramsey, who in addition to his fine work here is an eBay guru, found this jersey for $21.99 with free shipping.  So that left $74.93 to be donated to Keith Bulluck's Believe and Achieve Foundation that helps underprivileged children.  Pictured after the jump are the jersey and the letter that was sent along with the jersey.  Of course our resident wordsmith August West is responsible for the P.S. portion of said letter.

Thanks to everyone who contributed money and to Posse for the idea.  Merry Christmas!!

Awesome!

Now here’s hoping the people who handle the mail let it get to him.

Well...

If the Titans Front Office is on their game and keeping track of the team’s public image (AKA, paying someone to search sports blogs and fan sites for indications of how the fans see the team), they should already know it’s coming.

And if they're not...

Someone find me their number… I’ll call and volunteer for the job. :)

Question

Is that the actual letter to be sent or is it going to be retyped and printed on the official MCM corporate letterhead?

Maybe he will wear it to a press conference.

I would officially forgive him for the Manning jersey if he gave us a shout out.

I sent them the initial idea

They didn’t seem to care.

This is straight-up awesome.

Have you tried getting in touch with any of the more independent-minded newspapers? Im not a Nashville resident, but when I lived in Memphis I was an avid reader of the Memphis Flyer. They would totally pick up on something like this, so maybe theres a similar Nashville paper?

Nashville has the Nashville Scene

I havent seen it as much lately. I think Chris Vernon would run with this too if it happened in Memphis. Sadly, George Plaster is too busy talking about Vandy and the Predators.

I’m an early bird and a night owl. So I’m wise and I have worms.

by DonFrancisco on Dec 22, 2009 4:07 PM CST up reply actions  

The Scene has been running more sports stuff lately

unfortunately it’s just reprints of their sister paper (Nashville City Paper), and almost no new material… We’ll definitely send it their way though, as those sarcastic/cynical bastards are more likely to get what we’re doing with this.

Nice

 Well done guys! Can this org finally find it in its heart to resign great loyal and tenured player? Hope so “46”

by oilzwell on Dec 22, 2009 12:03 PM CST reply actions  

This is great

Glad to see this come to fruition.

by crazylegs28 on Dec 22, 2009 12:30 PM CST reply actions  

NICE !!!!!! I hope he can squeeze into it. He has put a bit of weight on.

Great score on the jersey !!! Hopefully he gets the not so subtle point that we did not appreciate the Peyton Manning jersey stunt. Great work on all who put this idea together and more important is that a worthy charity is reaping a reward for Fishers dumb move.
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!

Any update on this???

Does anybody know if he got it or not?
