Just got contacted because I'm a match for someone with Leukemia.
A little scared/apprehensive, but I gotta do it.

You should be wise enough to temper your ignorance with humility. You must understand, in Puck Head's world anything that happens south of 121 sucks and anything north of 121 is awesome...

When is it going to happen? I don't know, I haven't contacted them yet, I just got e-mailed/sent a packet in the mail. Need to talk to my mom who's a medical type before I contact them. In reading about it, it looks like you just get some shots for 5 days before donating blood for 4-6 hours....gonna suck cause I hate needles and all that stuff but I'd feel like a scumbag the rest of my life if I didn't do it.

Just a little update, I go to a place in Addison on Thursday to give a blood sample that they will check to make sure it is an exact match and that could take up to 3 months.

You should tell the Rhines. I'm sure they'd love to hear what has come out of the drive.

I dug this thread up for another reason but see I forgot to update ya'll on the status of this. They found a better match than me so it didn't end up happening, but still a cool experience. http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700048596/Dallas-next-on-RSL-checklist.htmlThe reason I dug this up is to show the class of Andy Williams towards the fans who went out of their way to try to help his sick wife. Andy Williams, who posted on his Twitter account that he enjoyed his day off by doing spring cleaning, has been around for all seven losses and believes the heat is to blame for everything."We can't blame the fans, because nobody's there. The humidity there is unlike any other, and it's pretty difficult, especially the last 20 minutes is when you're all gasped for air," said Williams. What a prick...hope you enjoyed your trip home with 0 points like always.
