BBI Annual Contribution Campaign Ending on September 30

Thanks Eric

Joe!

And thanks for all you do Eric!

Thank you! (You should have received a thank-you e-mail that I just sent out too).

and I must say I love this Site. Great work.
I am a long time diehard fan! Keep up the great work.

Thank you! I just sent out a thank-you e-mail to you too!

I will donate and I appreciate everything you do Eric! It's the best $$ I spend all year.

But is there anyway for you to remove the JWplayer from playing adds?

Thanks Ross!

Regarding your request, are you saying you are hearing an ad that is automatically making sound? I haven't seen that and it isn't supposed to happen (unless you mouse over one).

Check sent...and I'll email you. Thanks again for running BBI.

Thanks Eric for this great site.
Go Giants.

I've been taking up a lot of the bandwidth around here for over a decade - I felt I should contribute a little something. :)

Thanks for the site

Thank you everyone!!!

...is moot this year. The inclusion of the Sy'56 and Gidie camp reports are real value adds, Kudos for the improvements!

Thanks! I just sent you a thank-you e-mail.

But I've been on this site since before I was old enough to work. The Lavar Arrington saga was still my favorite time here waiting to see if we could get him. Love the insight and community. I sent a modest donation that I could send for now, I'll keep participating in the campaign. Thanks for everything Eric and the rest of the BBI community.

Thanks!!!

I still think a few of the other crazy times:

- The inside info on Plaxico Burress coming here...leaving...coming back.

- The original "gloveone" scoops on the Eli Manning trade.

- And who can ever forget the stupid click-a-thon we had for Warren Sapp?

Back again for another year. Thanks for everything !!!

Eric.

Thank you.

Worth their weight in gold or bitcoins or jewlz.

Do you offer merchandises with the BBI logo?

No, the NFL lawyers threatened to sue. If you have a BBI shirt, you have a rare commodity.

Thanks for all your hard work. I visit the site every day for the best coverage on the Giants.

Thank you everyone!!!!

I also received a donation from Bruce but received an "undeliverable" bounce-back to my thank-you e-mail.

Not me. I never sent anything

Different Bruce.

This is still the best damn thing I "buy" on the interwebs.
Thank you Eric, et al.

Can you believe that we've been doing this since 1995? Holy crap.

I believe it. I remember the early days of Pete's Corner.

Just sent my annual dues. Thanks for everything Eric.

Have been reading BBI for over 10 years...keep up the great work

Thanks for a great site Eric. The Internet wouldn't be the same without BBI.

Thank you!!!

Time flies when you're having fun.

A Cowboys fan just donated to the site... that was kind of cool.

I have been lurking/posting since 1996 I believe.

my contribution on Tue (and I'm also in VA) so hopefully you received it - just checking since I usually hear from you by now, though I know you're pretty busy. Thanks for all you do!

You come through every year! I haven't stopped by the Post Office yet. I will do tomorrow.

...it's my pleasure every summer to support my favorite site on the net, and thanks for keeping this place going for all these many years and for providing me a way to avoid work while indulging my passion for our New York Football Giants. Go Blue!!!

who haven't received thank-you e-mails for Post Office contributions, I haven't been able to go to the Post Office yet due to my current hectic schedule. I intend to stop by tomorrow morning.

Hope it helps

Thank you!!!

The new video reports are great adds a nice dimension where
as we don't have to focus on just the stars and here how
the lesser known are progressing .
Remember when I couldn't wait to get my Giants News Weekly
I wish I could find a way to access to archives probably
does not exist I did have a few letters publicized in it

I just donated. I seldom post but have been an avid visitor since 2007-08.

Here's to the next 10 years!

Bluesbreaker and b-baby!

my typically meager donation will be upped to $1,000 this year if you permanently re-instate political threads.

You've stated that you axed them in part due to BBI'ers who threatened to withhold donations had you not done so.

Not a demand of course (it's your business), or a threat. Merely me "voting" with my wallet as a ying to the delicate safe spacers' yang. $1k is in my Paypal ready to go.

Good luck with the campaign.

Not a day goes by where I don't thank God that I stopped allowing political threads. My decision is affected, but not driven, by financial considerations.

It's a quality of life issue for me.

But if you want to take into account financial considerations, allowing political threads would certainly drive up traffic and potentially dramatically increase ad revenue. But again, it's not worth it.

I imagine, for instance, the universities (who I've seen you criticize) that mostly acquiesce to their sanctimoniously PC student bodies likewise do not want to deal with headache(s) and simply want limited controversy coupled with the tuition checks rolling in.

Business decisions all.

Donation sent.

Go Giants!

in the hope that it will cause OBJ to finally grow up.

It's been a good year on BBI, a lot of informative and interesting content! Thank you!

Thank you very much everyone! When I have e-mail addresses, I've been sending out thank-you notes.

Via my pal, pay.

I spend less time here than I used to, because politics has become my newest sport. Nevertheless, I heartily concur with Eric's decision to remove politics from BBI. Too many people here couldn't control themselves over politics (including Eric, btw), and this past year would have been spectacularly worse for BBI than anything that came before. Heck, people are getting divorced over politics. People are being taken out of wills over politics. That never happened before at anything close to the current rate.

Could it be controlled on BBI? Not hardly.

Agreed..I have defriended many on Facebook over their political beliefs

thx Eric...

sent you my annual contribution today to your PO Box in Fredericksburg. Thanks for a great website. I love BBI.

Thanks Eric.

Thank you everyone!!!

Keep the political threads out!

Can't resist agreeing with you about "not worth it." Not if the contribution amount proffered were raised to a considerably higher number. It isn't and wouldn't be -- even if I sometimes wonder about how and where the line is drawn.

Late, but check is in the mail.

Being a Giant Fan wouldn't be the same without BBI. Keep coming back every year. I have been really impressed with Sy'56 and gidiefor's contributions. Thanks to Eric and everyone who makes this site possible.

Site means a lot to me.

Thanks again everyone!

You should be receiving thank-you e-mails from me if I have your e-mail address too.

via my wife's Paypal. I don't have a Paypal since I don't do much online shopping, so I used hers for this as I felt it was important to donate with how much I use this site. Figured it was better then sending a check in the mail.

Dave, I probably just sent a thank-you note to your wife. If that was you, my bad.

Yep, just checked her email. No problem, Eric. Might be able to donate next month, as well.

and we hope you will assist us in bringing you more content programming

but what prevents me from upping it is that BBI is without doubt the "dirtiest" site I frequent on the I. If I stay on BBI on any visit for more than 15 minutes, it routinely crashes my browser. This is across all browsers, irrespective of the device I am using.

First to occur is slowdown of loading, and I then know the fix is soon in, and then, inevitably, the browser will freeze, then the devices up and down buttons will freeze, and ultimately crash the device. Cleaning browser history does not help. Changing browsers does not help, because ultimately the slowdown impacts all tasks, even mail.

Without fail.

Eric, Gary, et al., please clean it up for a better user experience.

I gave what I could. Thanks Eric.

Your insider tidbits are worth their weight in gold!!!

Check is in the mail. Thanks for all your work.

UA

is really in the mail. Doing what I can this year. I think it matches last year. If some more funds shake free, I will send some your way, Eric.

Thank you for the additions, up grades , to BBI this year. Sy , Dave Te, podcast, training camp, draft and etc...all top notch

Thank you VERY, VERY much!!!!!

As always Eric, thanks for all that you do. Crazy that it's been 12 years this site is apart of my daily routine.

Thank you Eric for BBI. I rarely post but I'm on the site all the time. I'm a 61 y/o lifelong Giants fan and I really appreciate having a place to hang for Giants news, not to mention a ton more. So thank you and best wishes for continued success. John (aka jerseyboyLAX)

Thank you John!!! I also sent you an e-mail.

Donation sent via CC.

Have been lurking this site for 20 years now. Unreal. Still have the old BBI T-Shirt tho the wife wears it mostly.

All the best to you, and your regular contributors who consistently make this one of the best sites to visit.

Just donated. I'm not much of a poster but a long time lurker. I love this site. Thank you Eric and everyone who contributes to this site.

Ha... the old BBI t-shirts! A true collector's item!!! Thank you for the support!

Thank you for the contribution! I also sent an e-mail this morning.

But you should consider setting up a venmo. It's a simple money transfer app that charges no fees. My friends and I use it all the time, it's the best.

Sorry it took me so long. Sy56 is a great asset, Eric. Hopefully you can keep him working with you, so hopefully you can use some of this money to pay him. Btw, I hate giving to that friggin' Paypal guy (don't want to get political, tho), so hopefully when I hit "donate to BBI with credit card" none of my money went to him. I wouldn't want him to get 10 cents of mine (but I'll live with if it he did)!

Thank you sir! I just sent you a thank-you note too.
