BBI Contribution Campaign - We Begin Our 25th Year!

Eric from BBI : Admin : 7/29/2019 8:42 am
Yup, it's that time again. As our detractor's will call it, "The annual BBI beg-fest." BBI relies on two sources of income: ad revenue and our annual contribution campaign. The latter is critically important.

Each year, a few hundred of BBI's most supportive posters help keep the site up and running. Ideally we would like to expand that number with your help!

The contribution campaign will end September 30th. After that, I like to focus completely on football. Contributions can be made via PayPal or by check.

Thank you for your continued support!

Go Giants!

I started my company 25 years ago June. I found BBI and "Pete's Corner" shortly after. I have been on almost every day since. Very happy to support again this year.
Good Going, Eric!

Started in 1995, but if you actually count the seasons covered, this is the 25th.

Thank you!

As I've said before, donations are critically important to keeping the site up and running. But if anyone is in a tight financial situation, keep your money.

sent my usual donation. BBI is great. Thanks to you and the moderators for all of your hard work.
Its amazing all the life events that ive been through on BBI  
NJ_GIANTS : 8/10/2019 10:48 pm : link
I remember when its first started and we sent emails in. The messageboard really helped this group come together... meeting up at Giants camps and games.. catching a Yankees game with a few of you. Always had good conversations and debates.. i haven't contributed as much in the last few years, but i always check in. I hope it lasts another 25 years.
Congrats on 25 years!  
Joey from GlenCove : 8/12/2019 7:48 am : link

Hoping for another 25!

Wow... thanks for catching that. For some reason, the text link wasn't providing that option. I just added an icon that provides that option.

Now it's letting me do what I normally did to donate but it keeps saying there's a "temporary glitch" when I click the donate button.

When I click on the icon, it give me the choice to use a credit card. When I do that, it takes me to the payment page. I don't see any error message.

I did all that and put all my info in then clicked the button and it gave me twice when I tried it a "temporary glitch" message. I'll try it again right now and let you know.

If there is a big demand for Venmo, I would consider it. But PayPal allows folks to use a credit card without having a PayPal account, so I thought I had my bases covered.

If you have a Venmo, I could go right away. Otherwise have to setup a paypal
