In the spirit of Dgack's idea, I drafted this letter to send to DC Habitat For Humanity. Please give feedback.
Dear Members of DC Habitat for Humanity,
I am a member of a Redskins fan site called www.thewarpath.net (http://www.thewarpath.net/). The Warpath is composed of Redskins fans from all over the world, and the Warpath is our haven to discuss, rant, debate, and cope with all topics related to the Redskins. Although the Warpath's members do not always agree with one another, and each member thinks that if they were hired as the Redskins' general manager, the Skins would have 3 more Superbowl rings, there is one thing that we all have in common: WE ALL BLEED BURGUNDY AND GOLD! For many of us, the Redskins are more than just a team that we route for; they're our livelihood. Losses cause us to go into a week long funk of unpleasantness, while wins turn us into rays of sunshine. In short, we all just really love the Redskins.
As you probably know Art Monk was recently denied membership to the Hall of Fame, again. I think I can speak for all Redskins fans when I say that something must be done about this. I don’t think I need to go into detail about how great of a man Monk is and list his accomplishments on and off the field, if you’re a Skins fan or from the DC area, you already know. Anyways, recently a member of the Warpath brought up the idea of doing something to show Monk and the rest of the country how much the Redskins fandom appreciates what this man has done for the community of DC, and show how bogus we think it is that he was not inducted into the hall of fame. We want to do something for the community in Art’s name, and represent Art the way he represented us Skins fans when he played: by getting something done in the trenches. (I took that last line from dgack’s original post; I did not come up with that)
Do you have any ideas or projects that could help us fulfill this cause? I believe that people would jump at the opportunity to do something for the community in Monk’s name; we just need some guidance on how to do it. Please let me know.
