Bengals fan makes plea to help homeless, hungry

Dear Mark,

http://www.chunky.com/clickforcans.aspx

This came across my computer the other day and I was trying to figure out how the Bengals could win. I have alerted everyone I know. Being a competitor, I was trying to think outside the box.

I decided that this info needs to get to a sports writer at the Cincinnati Enquirer. I chose you. Please write something about this. I want to beat Green Bay but let's at least beat the Steelers. I really think that we can win. You would be the pivotal person.

Please read the following.

>> Easy way to help feed Cincinnati area's hungry: Cincinnati is currently
>> in
>> third place in the Campbell's "Click For Cans" competition. All you have
>> to
>> do is go to the website and vote for Cincinnati Bengals. The team with
>> the
>> most votes gets free soup donated for each pound of the winning team's
>> line-up. That is a lot of soup, and would feed a lot of hungry
>> Cincinnati's
>> poor. For a brief period last week we were in second. We can WIN! Think
>> how
>> COOL this would be if Cincinnati were to win this year. All of this food
>> would come pouring into the Free Store just before the Christmas Holiday.
>> This would help to feed so many more people than ever before and it
>> doesn't
>> cost any one of us a single penny. All you have to do is remember to vote
>> every day. Make yourself a little sticky note, store it to your
>> favorites,
>> and then tell 10 friends! Hopefully, they tell 10 friends, and they tell
>> 10
>> friends, and . . .
>>
> PLEASE, DON'T FORGET!

mark-
this is an excellent idea. i think to have any chance it needs to be in the paper not just on the blog. it would seem that this would be worthy of even front page space to help the city's homeless.
