And so our 2005 Koufax Awards pledge drive is one-third done as well.
We are very thrilled by the generous contributions we have received so far and thank each and every one of those kind souls.
Unfortunately, we are far from meeting even our minimum costs (bandwidth, power, bananas, etc.) for what we expect to be a significantly larger event than last year's record breaker.
Thus, this is just a small reminder, in case anyone missed all the blaring links interspersed around the page, that the Koufax Awards Pledge Drive is still chugging along.
Dwight, (on whose computer I'm typing right now, as we've invaded the Meredith's lovely new abode in Greensboro,) has threatened to write the next "reminder" post, and we all know that means lots and lots of lawyerly "motivation", aka guilt tripping.
So please consider contributing if you enjoy reading the Koufax nominees as much as we love putting them all together.
Update!: Just like NPR, we just got a "challenge match"! We have an anonymous benefactor who has promised to match any amount equal to or above $500 contributed within the next 72 hours. Yee haw!

I have no idea what this stuff costs, as far as I know it's free! Isn't it?
It's not, is it?
Dammit!
Damn that Al Gore for not inventing an internets that's freeeeeee!
