Thanks, Mark (and all).
Anyone who is playing the College Bowl Pool, but wasn't in the NFL Pool can
make a donation here: http://cct.org/donors/. Just enter "Devin Shafron
Memorial Fund" at the bottom of page after filling out the donation
information. Or I'm happy to cover people and get paid back in March at
the Roto draft.
Happy New Year!
-Andy
