Quick site update

I’m going to keep this short and sweet, and its not really a topic for discussion, so comments will be locked. If you need to get in touch with me on this, you can send me an e-mail. I’ve mentioned it tons of times before, but my goal in starting this site was always to keep it ad free, mainly because I don’t need to make money off of this site, and because I know how intrusive and annoying ads can be. I’ve had offers to integrate ads into the site, to merge my site with other sites, and just about everything in between. I’ve resisted all those offers, and I likely will in the future as well. This place runs on the hard work of everyone involved, especially guys like gregg who take tons of time to add their own content and keep things fresh. So, I actually came up with an alternate idea that might work. You may have noticed that I’ve added a “donation” button on the right side of the page. This button links to PayPal, and allows you to donate money in the name of the site. This donation button is 100% optional, you shouldn’t feel obligated to donate money, and I’ll never personally ask anyone who visits here to donate. But if you do want to toss a few dollars into the fund, I’d appreciate it. What will it go toward? Well, I have to renew the domain name every year to keep the unique web address and not .wordpress attached to it. Also, the money will go toward subscription services that provide baseball content that I can synthesize and pass along in some form. Finally, the money could be used to pay for content for the site, whether it be getting players to contribute in the same fashion as Michael Schwimer, or anything of that sort. This isn’t a tax writeoff, or some grand scheme. But if you want to contribute to this site, the option is there for you. I won’t address it again on the site, if you want to discuss it, then email is the avenue for that.
