Help Wanted on a VERY IMPORTANT Project!!!

Gents... and Ladies, especially those of you who spend a good amount of time surfing  the net, I got something fairly BIG brewin' for this offseason/the '05 season and need/would REALLY appreciate some help with the "ground-work". Let's say, if I could get just three people to help me with this, it would be about a one-hour job for each of us rather than a (fairly tough) four-hour job  for me (which is not out of the realm of possibility I wouldn't be able to get around to in time, causing the whole project to tank  ), and, of course, the more, the merrier,... the more dudes we got workin' it, the more we can reduce (uh-oh, oxymoron alert  ) the amount of time anyone has to spend! Teamwork is the key to our success here on "the Gridiron"! It is the way to take things on "the Gridiron" up a notch and to the next level. SO, if you got a little time you can spend giving me a hand with this, LET ME KNOW HERE!!! LET ME KNOW NOW!!! Thank you.

Just talked to Steg, what you are volunteering for is not a major life change. It will take a little bit of time(an hour), but it will could help make a huge difference in the long run for the future of the site.

Just bumpin' this up... and grindin' away... 
(You weren't thinking that were you, you gutter-minds? ... Sheesh) 
ANYWAY, PLEASE respond if you've got the time and want to help "the Gridiron" grow! This is a VERY important project and what I need you all to help me with here is not at all intensive. It should be a snap for any of you who spend a decent amount of time on the net (moreover, surfing FF sites).

Okay,... doesn't look like anybody else feels like steppin' up.  Oh, well... 
Boyz, we need to  for this. This is a project that is going to require a talk, yup, on the phone. Jim, I'll give you a call soon (you, of course, are welcome to try me, too). Steve, we've already spoken unofficially. I will give you too the whole lowdown soon. Tony, I need your digits. The past is the past.  Private-message me your # along with good times to reach you, preferably by no later than next Sunday night.
Anybody else wanting to pitch in, sign up now or forever hold your "piece"...  Or, is that "peace"? ...

You do WAY MORE than your share already, Jeff. Thank you for as usual stepping up and offering (and I will keep your offer in the back of my mind), but even if it is just the four of us (Steve, Jim, Tony and me), that should be good enough. That having been said, this is NOT a very intense project; actually it is going to be rather,... get this,... FUN  (who'd a thunk) and DEFINITELY difference-making, and I would REALLY like others to step up and become part of the greater "effort" here on "the Gridiron".

It's going to be FUN?  In that case, take me off the list. I don't want to do anything fun.

Well, the "greater project" hasn't. But, I sure hope the grad student here who is going into five-digits of debt by the year isn't looking at having to foot the four-digit bill to get this thing off the ground. Now, as for me, I had a 20-pager due last Tuesday that ate up my time. But, still, I at least am a quarter of the way done (and it all ultimately falls on my back).
I had said I wanted to be done in two weeks, not commence in two weeks.
Before I go on, Callie, I do want to thank you SO MUCH for your efforts. You have come through on your word and (as you all know) that means everything to me. That's all that really matters (in life).
In any case, overall, there is good news and bad news... To say that I am disappointed in how this has gone would be an incredible understatement. Fortunately, I haven't had much time to dwell on it. But, that the co-op mindset hasn't manifest here is surely dismaying and affects how I think about the future of the place. Anyway, that's the bad news. That wasn't too bad (for you guys). The good news for you all (though it is bad for the ultimate goal of all this) is that you all now have until May 8th to get me your lists. The goal was to have this done before I start rounding third base for the semester and final papers and exams starting kicking in. Well, that evidentally hasn't/ain't going to happen. So, you all now have a ton of time to get this done: you have until May 8th. This is going to hurt our chances of getting sponsors. Alas, somehow, though, I'll make it happen.
Since this is the case, I am probably going to try to garner some assistance with the next (totally crucial) step of the process. That is going to be a significantly more high-maintenance job, though, and given how this has gone, what it took to get just four people to volunteer and then what has been accomplished to "get the job done",... I am not getting my hopes up.
I just hope that everybody understands and keeps their curious (probing-my-wallet) questions to themselves if/when I start having to make a serious play for donations come May, which, by the way, is also the time most of the regular (ever-increasing) bills around this place come due.

I want to thank Philly a.k.a. Jeff West for making time in his busy schedule to help out with this CRUCIAL project. He was in DC on business this week and we met up last night. I was telling him what needs to be done with this and he, like he so often does, immediately stepped up and offered his assistance. He is excellent about following through on his word and I am thankful to have him helping out.
If ANYBODY else who HAS JUST A LITTLE SPARE INTERNET-SURFING TIME wants to lend a hand, PLEASE, by all means, let me know. This is VERY IMPORTANT!
