What is the best way to help raise money for my sons youth sports teams?

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010


There are many fundraising options for teams. For example, I know Joe Corbi’s and Yankee candles have fundraising activities and a good percentage goes to your team!! Another great way to raise money would be to have a car wash. Make the carwash free, but accept donations. We did it for our softball team and we raised over $300 in one afternoon. Good Luck!

I understand that online betting online is illegal in the US, is it not? I have a freind in England and am trying to figure out how to make this work… Like can he get me an English credit card (do they have ones like we have where you just buy it for $20 and it has $20 on it)? Help! How can I do this.

Betting online from USA is not at all illegal. There is no law against it in USA. You can play at USA friendly bookmakers such as listed here http://www.gamblingsafe.net/usa-friendly-sites/usa-friendly-bookmakers.html
Also in the articles is written how to deposit from USA.

Why do people always undermine people in sports and fitness?

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

If someone runs a good mile in around 4 minutes, they claim he is on steroids. If someone is really good at pushups, it is claimed that he isn’t doing the excercises properly. Or if somoene is already a professional or olympian, they say he is overrated.
Or they try to show these people.

Sports are, by their nature, competitive. Some people are just better competitors than others. Most people don’t stoop to this kind of behavior, but a lot do.

Is there such an overnight camps for "Academic and Sports Camp" for college/university students?

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

How many types of camps you can think of suitable for university students or senior high school students? Around the ages of 16-21.

Example: Computer Camp
Basketball camp

Is there such a thing as a multi sport camp?

There are sports fantasy camps for adults (anyone over 18, I think). You get to train with a bunch of other pro-wannabes in a pro-style training environment for 2 weeks or so. They cost mucho $$. There are no equivalent Computer camps. At that age, you can just take university courses to learn what you need about computers.

how much money would the government collect if they legalized Pro sports betting?

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

how much money would the government collect if they legalized Pro sports betting?
the booking company would have to take a social security number. To collect taxes right away. Upon winning.
Pro’s make too much money to throw games these days. College players could be swayed. So only pro betting.

Its legal in Nevada….
