Fun With Charity; Rejoice in Stanziballs

Stanziballs got you down? Well fret no longer my fellow Pantsers.  I have come up with a solution to your pick-six blues. For every Stanziball thrown by the Iowa offense this year, I pledge to donate 10% of the donation amount per touchdown on behalf of the BHGP crew.

For example, at the current total of $295/touchdown and assuming the same number of Stanziballs, 4, I would be on the hook for a one time donation of $118.

So, if you feel like making me sweat on this one, get your ass over to the TD4K page and up the BHGP amount, dammit. 

And remember...Stanziballs = Happy Kids!

Very noble of you sir.

Theres part of me that hopes you pay out the ass. And the other part realizes that if you do it could be a very long and disappointing year for all Hawk fans.

Am I correct

that you defining Stanziball here as one actually returned for a TD, not just the run of the mill interception.
I realize it’s pretty obvious, but clarity is key.

It never gets to be easy

I was under the impression that a Stanziball was a pick-six.

A Stanziball is

an interception of any kind. A Stanzismakingmewanttochokeacat is a pick six.

I always thought a Stanziball was just a throw that doesn't make any damn sense.

Like throwing into triple coverage because he’s certain that McNutt will pull it down.

You'll notice

that in the post, he said “assuming the same number of Stanziballs, 4…”

Therefore, for his pledge, Stanziball = pick 6

Stanziball=Interception

Rick Six=interception returned for a touchdown

Agreed

but if Hawkaloogie was thinking of the Rick Six, I’m not going to demand payment for each interception.

Before you respond, let me remind you: Brian Cook called me smug, which makes me the Obama of smugness. I'm basically Smugbama.

I was referring to "Rick-sixes"....

It’s just there are literally hundreds of interceptions thrown every year, seems unfair to assign a label to something so common.

Besides, a donation for every “Stanziball” as I now know it would be north of $500, and if I had that kind of scratch I’d be an internet blogger.
