1ManRaid Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 I bet the donations will suddenly stop Saturday afternoon, with some charge backs around 4pm... 😛 Also bet a lot of people will misread and think Colts fans donated the whole $1m themselves, not merely added to a fund that already had $1m. 1
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 They ought to be showing Mckenzie and Marlowes charity the love.

Tweets are cheap - did they actually donate?

Draconator Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) It was at 1 million before the Colts fans started donating. Plus, look at the date of the article. Edited January 6, 2021 by Draconator

Sooooo...you're saying you know for sure all non-Colts donations stopped at exactly $1m, and that every dollar since is solely from Colts fans?

Sooooo... you're saying that you know for a fact it wasn't all from Colts fans? Did I actually say I knew "for sure"? (Quote me where I say I knew for sure)

Did I actually say I knew "for sure"? (Quote me where I say I knew for sure) I'm saying you made a claim you have no way of backing up. The burden of proof is on the one making the claim (you). Also the article says a week had passed since $1m was hit, but you SPECIFIED the $50k was raised in a specific recent 24 hours. For that to be true, ALL DONATIONS from non Colts fans had to have ceased for that week for your claim of $50k solely from Colts fans to be true. 24 minutes ago, Draconator said: Really?

You don't care about how much was raised to a worthy charity. You just want to nit pick who made what donation, just so you can beat your chest saying "Bills fans beat Colts fans". Doesn't matter that ALL donations go to the worthy cause. Got it. 1

ToBillsFan Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) How is it possible there are arguments going on in this thread? Human beings are donating to a great cause, can we leave it at that? Edited January 6, 2021 by ToBillsFan 4

No, just nitpicking a condescending person who makes statements of fact they can't possibly know to be true. Pretty sure posting bogus facts is supposed to be frowned upon around here.
