Forgive me for wanting the NFL to donate more than 10% on this cause. Great they donate millions a year, awesome , they could be donating even more and making more of a difference. No clue why it's hard to see why someone is perturbed by 11.25 donated for every 100 by an organization that makes billions each year.

you clearly missed my point, if you saw my 1st post you would get what I was saying

But what are the total numbers of the pink products ? Bring me the numbers on how much revenue the pink products are generating before you throw out the 11% figure. 11% of 10, 15, 20 million ...?
that's not the point

50% of $10M >>> 11% of $10M

Na I was just quoting you as reference to the dude upset that I want the NFL to donate more than they do. Wasn't coming at you or anything.

Okay ? and 50% of your salary donated to cancer research is >>>>> than 11% of your salary donated to cancer research . So are you ready to donate 50% of your salary to cancer research ?

all good, I made a thread about this in General a few years ago and well you know how that goes

for $11.25 donated off that $100 the NFL pockets $12.50 of the $100

It's not the NFLs entire revenue that is 11% donated


Again, if I sell a pink product to benefit breast cancer research, I'm donating more than 11%. And I'd be transparent about it

Get it?

I get it. How many pink products have you sold this year ? Zero.

Get it?
 
But wait, all of the sudden everyone is expecting the NFL to be transparent ? Have ANY of yall been paying attention to how the NFL runs things? OF COURSE theyre lying. OF COURSE they're doing anything to make a buck. This is how all major corporations operate.
 
You have no idea the charitable foundations and causes in associated with

And you have no idea the charitable foundations and causes im associated with. You also have no idea how the NFL runs their charitable endeavors. Your 11% figure means nothing. A dollar amount is much more applicable.
 
Leah is probably getting GREAT treatment. Plenty of other people are probably receiving GREAT treatment because of this. But of course, it's a problem . Because NT.
And millions of farm animals are getting tortured each hour but hey, we ouch here eatin good.

I'm not upset at the result, I'm upset at the process.

Big businesses are benefiting more money wise then any cancer research department.

That's not how it's supposed to work.

 You's a fool!

Apples and oranges!

The NFL isn't donating any percent of their annual 9 BILLION DOLLAR income to anything

 In the end, after everybody has taken their cut, only 8.01% of money spent on pink NFL merchandise is actually going towards cancer research

I didn't question what you did or did not do. YOU brought that up and made it personal. I'm very satisfied with the charities I work with and there is transparency because I see it

If you think size is most important, that bigger is better I don't know what to tell you. I question your economic intellect at the very least. Obviously we aren't going to agree but I think the majority of posts have valid questions and critiques.

Actually, you made it personal by suggesting that you sell items and donate a certain amount of that revenue to charity:

This whole thing started because dudes had a problem with Leah being on a Wheaties box. More power to her for being a fighter and gaining some recognition for her struggle. Hopefully, other people will be motivated. Instead, NT wants to talk about percentages. It's sad. That other 89% goes towards making the NFL as popular as it is.
 
One last thing, the fact the NFL dedicates a whole month to AWARENESS, is a good thing. Does any other major sport do this?

We all know millions of people watch the NFL . How can we measure the amount of people that might have said, "Damn, maybe I should get checked?" That has nothing to do with any type of dollar amount. The whole "pink" movement is a GOOD thing. Period.
 
It would be nice if everyone that could afford to donate to a charity could give a little more, but I can appreciate that at least something is being done. It is what it is...

It's hard to believe that style of coaching is successful. It seems more style than substance. But of course we're not seeing the teaching that the coaches are providing.
