The cause of funding grifters who have no real plan to do anything other than enrich themselves. Why aren't more people supporting it?

A guy is hosting a gimmick radiothon to raise money for a charity. On AM radio.

Trying to find something wrong with that seems DiCaro-esque.

We believe in a community-driven, research-based, athlete-led approach that directs resources to programs that strengthen our communities and address structural inequalities at a local level by

You missed my earlier post, wfr. I would appreciate an honest reply.

Thanks.

You proved to be completely dishonest in your later post. You read it exactly the same way.

The money is gong to a vaguely titled "Athletes for Justice" organization. Here is their coded mission:



I am certain that if the charity said were are working to "Make American Great Again" by amplifying local voices it would rightly be dismissed as a political organization.

1. Always be suspicious of celebrity led organizations.

2. Always be suspicious of charities with a vague mission such as "justice".

I wish Wfr would have had this much energy looking into the Trump election fraud fundraising and where all that money went. I'll give them the chance that they are actually trying to do the right thing.

Hey professor, that later post of mine that you reference to was a dig at YOUR takes in this thread! Specifically your first post here referring to "grifters" and insinuating that everybody in the Austin neighborhood will do nothing to improve their lot in life. SS quoted it for you in case you had forgotten.


That said, you seem to read different posts than the rest of us. Why does this happen to you far more than anybody else here?

Parkins and his fellow liberal co-hosts who attacked the Score's loyal listeners as the root of our nations problems now is shaming those same listeners to donate to a charity started by millionaires that doesn't disclose its financials on its website.

That is not what he said. That is not what he inferred.

You seem to read different posts than the rest of us. Why does this happen to you far more than anybody else here? This is especially true when it comes to anything race related, but its not limited to those subjects as you just did this to me in the Sox section a few minutes ago.

Can you offer an explanation?

I think there are very valid reasons to be skeptical of a celebrity led charity middle-manning a relatively low cost project that go beyond RACISM!1!!!

Please and thank you, wfr.

Six multi-millionaire got together to ask for your money to finance a $500k food co-op. Don't you dare question it though. They are "doing the right thing".

Yes, but why is THIS particular charity being intensely scrutinized by certain posters? Maybe these posters have raised issues with other charities on this bored in the past but I haven't seen them scrutinize those charities with the vigor we are seeing here. If I am shown those posts, I suppose I'll eat some crow.

It's exactly what he said. And your attempt to lie, and act like this is some good faith argument isn't hiding that fact.

Yes, but why is THIS particular charity being intensely scrutinized by certain posters?

Your reply does nothing to answer the simple questions asked of you. You certainly don't have to answer, and I won't ask again, but your silence thus far is deafening.

Because the sportsradio station this board exists to comment on just spent 24 hours promoting it?

:lol:

My questions are not specific to this thread, as I pointed out you took words that I never posted and basically replied to them on your own in the Sox section earlier this morning.

Even you not answering speaks volumes, wfr.
