Mack's Mets Sunday

Hey folks, it's Mack. Hope your Saturday night is going well.

This will be the only post on Sunday at Mack's Mets.

Going to take a little brain rest on Sundays... it takes me around six hours a day to keep this site up and the  Docs love the fact that all the work is keeping the old brain working... but, they also reccomend a day away from the computer once a week.

So, Sunday will basically become the day I will ask my contributer writers to add some content... and it'll be a good day to ask for your support. Yes, we could call it "Beg Sunday".

There's a lot of new viewers here... averaging over 1,000 hits a day now, so let me bring you newbies up to date with my sob song... (cue the violins...) one time big broadcast dude... now broke... on full disablilty with past brain trauma... wife can't work, no insurance... no income.

There are four ways you can help:

1. go to http://www.paypal.com/ and donate $5.00 to macksmets@gmail.com - I will email you "The Keepers", a 52,504 word breakout on the top 100 Mets prospects in the system - 42 pages

2. go to http://www.paypal.com/ and donate $10.00 to macksmets@gmail.com and I will email you the 57-page, 98,848-word report on the top 500+ players available for the 2010 baseball draft

3. go to http://www.paypal.com/ and donate anything you feel like it, to macksmets@gmail.com. Some people actaully do that once in a while.

4. If you're an advertiser, please consider advertising on this site (the gambling and ticket categories are sold out through 2010). We're a page 3 site and we really could help you here. This is not one of those inane thread sites filled with children. The psychographics of our readers are incredible.

One more thing... I'm sure lots of you wonder just how much is made on sites like this and whether or not people like me get rich begging all the time.

For the record, this site has been up for around a year and a half.

To date:

    -total advertising dollars secured:  $150

   - total random donations:

                   Robert Ade (brother):        $ 750
                   Teddy Dzubia:                         50
                   Dave Singer:                         100
                   Dan Kreiger:                          25..........   $ 925

    -total sales of "The Keepers": -   1.         ..............     $    5

   - total sales of Baseball Draft Research: -  0  ......      $    0


             TOTAL REVENUE GENERATED OVER 1 1/2 YEARS:     $1,080 

Trust me... Mack's Mets will be here, in some form, until the day I pass. I love doing  this that much, but I also have to pay the bills around here. Has things changed over the years? Well, let's see... manager of top radio station in NYC... parties at Studio 54... buy radio station for 1mil, sell 4 years later for 4.4mil...  the 80s fallout...  begging for a $5 deduction...  yeah, I'd say they've changed a little...

The season will be starting soon... we'll be updating "The Keepers"... I'll be writing live from the Savannah Sand Gnat home games.... we'll have a nightly recap of all the affiliates and how things worked out...

Anyway, enjoy your Sunday and we'll be back on line tomorrow morning with some good ole Mets stuff.

Mack
