lol why would DWill and JStew need "revenue" ?

It probably goes towards some charity. It's not a porn site...jeez

Proceeds from shirt sales go to St. Judes. I'm not sure about the sites membership money but I'm sure at least part of it will go to Williams' foundation.

So I just got a phone call from DeAngelo thanking me for signing up. That was pretty cool and unexpected

He gave me a call too. I talked to him about a half hour ago. Cool, and unexpected also. And I'm in Saudi Arabia. GO PANTHERS.

Got a call too, Deangelo...quite nice

Personally I think it's cool that this site exists. It's a simple way for fans to get involved in a small way with the players and get more into the game. It's something we have as Panthers fans that other teams don't. If you're upset about them charging money then don't join, just save your complaining for somewhere else. They said the money goes to a charity, and you can believe them if you want. I also like it because you can get a glimpse of them just being real guys hanging out. I'd like them to make videos about they're experience in the NFL.

The bottom line is that our backfield duo enjoy each other and work as a team. The more camaraderie the happier I am and the longer they'll want to stay Panthers.

I told my co-worker about the site (he's a Seahawks fan) and he got pissed and jealous heh. I bet he wishes Jones and Duckett had their own fan site... unfortunately, no one would join it.

Don't delude yourself. Professional athletes are in it as much for love of the game, if not more, for the opportunity to make money for themselves.

I would love to delude myself, but my body is already like 70% water. Or is that dilute? Oh well, fug it.

The site is there to make money plain and simple. For what it is worth even when an individual or company say that the proceeds go to a charity you have to read the fine print. I get bombarded every day by marketing companies collecting money for charities, and various other causes. When I delve into it, I find that out of every dollar I donate often 2/3 of it goes to "administrative fees" or whatever.

Not saying that this is what is happening here, frankly I am not going to pay 34.28 to find out. But many times only a small portion goes to charity. Other times the whole amount goes to charity and the athlete picks up the cost of the shirt for example. You have to read carefully.

But as Dimbee says, these guys know that fame is fleeting and they are going to make as much money as possible. I also notice that many times guys will attach their name to a cause and raise other folk's money but put none of their own in the pot.

Just sayin..........
