    We used to just buy $5 in 50-50 tickets the last two years for the few games we attend and started doing $20 this year.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    I found the following in a USA today article on the changes in the proposed tax law currently in Congress:

    College boosters: *Sports fans would no longer be able to deduct 80% of the cost of donations to colleges if they are made only to become eligible to buy seats for games or get preferences such as prime parking spots.

    But if you are already taking the standard deductions, this won't matter. Only applies if you itemize, and I think very few people do. And I believe new tax plan would increase standard deductions making it even less attractive to itemize.

    Correct, If the current bill were to pass, fewer people would itemize because higher standard deduction. This is why the home builders association opposed the bill, because under the current law one of the biggest things that makes itemizing attractive is the mortgage interest and property tax deduction. Then, after they made their intention to not endorse the bill clear, the writers of the bill stuck it too them by inserting a provision that would also lower the maximum size of mortgage eligible for the benefit.

It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    We went to the annual meeting tonight. Maybe 40 people. They had some wings, nacho cheese and chips and Mexican egg rolls. Meeting was pretty quick as usual. Minutes, finances (5 million plus), voted on by laws (yes) and board members.
    Coach said Dunn ran today. Applause ensued. He was heading back to tape after the meeting. Someone asked if Heagle or Jireck (sp) had been asked to help. He laughed but said tape is the same as last time we played them. That they had a book of all playoff games to help.
    We were out of there by 7

    Raised more money again this year . That is great. It will need to rise each year.

    I'm gonna join Team-Makers in 2018. Can't go to Frisco cuz I'll still be in my Cam-boot..... grrrrrr. Had Flat-foot surgery on 11-2-17. Been on knee-bike since!! Got to all 3 playoff games in Dec though! Was able to get Handicap-seating Tix thank God!
    Will $1,000 do anything to help get Football season tickets?? Trying to work out the budget to do this soon, in 2018.

    So.....what are the steps to get in? I've had a GoBison account for yeeeaarrs, but my Wife & Daughter have their own accts, & they've always had luck logging in to get those 8am, or 6pm ticket releases!

    I'm an '86-grad Alumni, & actually had a couple PE classes from Mr. Simmers! He bugged me a few times to try out for Football, but I had MCL surgery in High-School (Finley-Sharon!) Nov 1978. I was too scared at the time of re-injuring it, so I never did....Uffda! I was about 6'3", 250lbs at the time. Then in 9/2014, got a NEW knee...the same one operated on in '78. So now....I've got a new MESH MCL, & Dr moved the original "pretty beat up" MCL a little!

    Thanks for any help!

    $1000 won't get you a sniff, but you will probably get 8 end zone nose bleeds before the general public can buy.
