Thanks, gr82b. And you finally got your hat!
Hope you are well with the stuff you're going through. Keep your chin up.

Although I never received my promised hat or long-sleeve tee shirt for winning a trivia contest months ago, I am still going to transfer to annual as soon as I get my Christmas bonus . . . as long as said bonus is not "a membership in the Jelly of the Month, the gift that keeps on giving!"
+1 to the first that nails the reference!

Not sure how to put this .... but I'm pretty sure I gave Wes the long sleeve T-shirt to send you. I'll double check with him on the status.
In Wes' defense, he did PM me 5 months ago and offered an XL long sleeve T-shirt, but I told him I went 150 lbs. soaking wet - he said he would check on some options and get back to me. I do understand you guys have a little higher priorities, that is why I am getting ready to switch to the annual plan - you guys are awesome and a little thing like a cap is not going to be a problem for me.

FWIW he has the small size for you - unless a certain redhead is wearing in now?

Well now, that would add to the allure of getting the shirt! Only two problems with that: 1. My beautiful wife may wonder why I would be so excited about a T-shirt; and, 2. I would be afraid it could have some Wes residue on it from him hugging her . . .

Thanks for the info Kevin.... I am new to the site. But, as an Orange Blooded Tennessean who lives in the Seattle area, I am loving the site thus far. It's great to see the community so alive and active. So much good info being shared.
As for the text alerts that come with the yearly membership, what is their frequency and tone? How frequently, how quickly, and how much detail is disseminated with the text alerts?
to the board, stansell! Happy to have you here!
We generally send out text alerts only for breaking news, so it's usually pretty straightforward and to the point, since it has to fit into a 160-character text message. We'll put as many details in them as we can, but it's usually pretty basic. For instance, just a few days ago we sent out a text alert that read, "In speaking with sources close to Jon Gruden and UT AD Dave Hart, we’d be surprised if Gruden and UT had more serious discussions about the UT coaching vacancy."
