I'm still waiting for the Utah, Milwaukee, San Antonio, Houston and Dallas games. I download all of the games that are posted. However, I'm left to listen to the games on the radio because I'm guessing the person who normally posts the games must be really busy.

Do you guys donate to Foolio's fund?

I can't speak for others on here. But, I don't rely on nor am I acting impatient toward him/her. It's their choice to post games on here. No one is saying you've to do so. I no longer have cable TV and I readily can listen to the games on the radio. So, I'm not calling out anyone. People are just curious... At least I am. I'm not complaining... That's it. No need to get defensive.

I mean I was the one who suggested that this person is busy. I can accept that. That's what I think. I can only speak for myself. But, people are so quick to become testy and asume that you aren't paying and getting it free so be quiet.

Don't lump me in with the others who posted in this thread. I chose to reply because I was curious and wondered if there's a problem and that problem was being addressed in this thread.

Have you donated...?

No need to be defensive. My question was directed to everybody, not just the posters above.

To answer your question (or my own question, actually), no I haven't donated. I am scared crapless of identity theft, and I generally try to avoid providing any type of personal or financial information online.

I usually watch the games on TV, or through internet streams when they are not broadcast here in the Canadian prairie, so I rarely have to resort to Foolio's website (I've done so maybe 3 or 4 times).

Foolio really is providing a service, especially to those fans who don't live in New England but can't do without their Celtics. However, posting NBA games online is borderline illegal, and receiving income (even in the form of donations) probably makes it downright out of bounds. I'm sure Foolio knows this, but he still puts himself on the line to make the rest of us happy Celtics fans. We should be VERY thankful.

There really shouldn't be any foolio threads asking him for games. He either posts the games, or he doesn't. It's his call, his prerogative.

I had to unexpectedly fly to Vancouver last week so the next game I will catch is the Phoenix game.

Foolio,

I think you should provide an option to the payor on PayPal to make a bigger donation than just $1. This must be very time consuming and thankless service that you provide to the Celtics fans and I, for one, would have donated a lot more if I could (even though I catch most of the games on the League Pass). On behalf of all out-of-town Celtics fans, thank you for taking the time to do this.
