Ultimate Yankee vs Red Sox All-Star Challenge!!

Are you still basking in the glory of the Yankee’s 27th World Championship?

Are you still loathing over having a “Got Rings Lately?” shirt that is now out-of date?

Although there is not much that Yankee and Red Sox fans agree on, there is no doubt that we all agree that it is time that we find a cure and put an end to Cancer!

For those of you who know me, there is nothing I take more pride in than my New York Yankees and my Jorge Posada t-shirt. There is nothing that can tear me away from my Yankees. As passionate as I am about my team, there is one thing that I am more passionate about in this life. There is nothing I wouldn’t do to help find a cure for cancer. I would give up all my Yankee gear and never watch a game again if it meant that no one else would ever have to hear the words “you have cancer.” This brings me to this challenge I am presenting to all of you…

THE CHALLENGE-

Which fans are more passionate? Show your support by making donations to the Relay For Life effort. Which ever fans donate more money will win! On December 9th Jill Grebert will wear the jersey of the team that had the most donations made on their behalf.

Yankee fans.. She wants to wear her Posada shirt!

Red Sox fans- Here’s your chance to get her in a Red Sox T-shirt (it will of course be a Jon Lester)

HOW IT WORKS-

Show your support for your team, whether it be the Yankee’s or Red Sox. To show your support all you need to do is make a donation to help fight cancer. On December 8th at 8pm, the bidding will end! She will wear the winning shirt the next day… all day! This includes the Relay For Life Wrap Up Party that will be at UNO’s in Crossgates Mall.

To Support Your Team and Fight Cancer:

“I CAN’T THINK OF ANY MORE PASSIONATE FANS IN THE WORLD THAN THE FANS OF THE BOSTON RED SOX AND THE NEW YORK YANKEES. ALTHOUGH WE WILL NEVER SEE EYE TO EYE ON THE DIAMOND, LETS SHOW EVERYONE THE POWER OF OUR PASSION BY COMING TOGETHER TO FIGHT CANCER!

ALTHOUGH I AM A YANKEE FAN DOWN TO THE BONE, I WOULD PICK A RED SOX FAN TO HELP IN MY FIGHT AGAINST CANCER ANYTIME.”

A few important things to know….

*At The Sage Colleges Relay on November 21st, she will wear the shirt of the team that is leading in the donations (From 4pm until 12am)

*All checks should be made out to the American Cancer Society

*At Relay, there will be donation jars that you can put your “support in”

*The All-Star Challenge will be decided based on which team has earned the most money. There is no way to minus money from your least favorite team… or add to your favorite team
