Chiefs FREE: Chiefs Coat Autographed by Tony Gonzalez - Page 3

Yosef_Malkovitch · 02:19 PM

Well boys, you all have provided me with a lot of entertainment over the years, even though I don't post too much. I'd like to give something back.

I'm cleaning out my closet, and I have a gift for a member of the Planet.

While I've enjoyed this season, I find that I'm not nearly as rabid of a fan as I used to be. I doubt I ever will be, and that's actually a good thing (for me, at least). I detailed that evolution at some length here, if it really matters: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280405

Anyway, I'll cut to the chase: I have a Chiefs coat that I got autographed by Tony Gonzalez and Derrick Alexander. It's in pretty good shape--a little bit of dirt here and there from normal wearing, but if you toss it in the wash it should come out as good as new.

The zip-off hood was lost years ago.

I'm giving this coat away. I'd like to ask the Planet to pick one long-time member, and I'll send it to them. Postage is on me.

Just a few guidelines, if I may:

1. I would like for it to go to someone who has been around for a while. While all the new members who have signed up with the recent on-field success are, I'm sure, wonderful people, the Planet has been something of a longtime home for me. I've literally been here since day one.

I don't know how I'd have gotten through grad school without having a place to come waste time and decompress. So, I'd like to give back to someone who has helped make it that way. I'm not going to set a date and say that the recipient must have been around as of that point; I'll leave it up to you guys.

2. I would like for it to go to someone who may not be able to afford much for Christmas. While my financial status is fine now, it seems like it wasn't all that long ago that I was struggling just to make ends meet. I know what it's like to wonder how you're going to get by, and I'd like to try to help someone who might not otherwise have a very good Christmas.

I don't know how you all want to do this, whether it's through a nomination and voting process, or just a general discussion, or what. I'll leave that up to you.

I’m too busy to closely monitor the discussion, as I’m running into peak season for my job. So I'll just ask SAUTO or one of the other mods to pm me once the selection has been made. Send me the recipient's name and address, and I'll pop this in the mail.

I think KcNut is the clear cut winner here!

Yosef_Malkovitch · 12-04-2018, 10:20 AM

OK, by my count we have 7 votes for kcnut and 4 other people with 1 vote each.

Unless anyone objects, I think we can skip the poll and just call it for kcnut. Please PM me your name and address. I'll wait until Thursday to mail it just in case anyone wants to object--I *don't* ("don't added by edit) want anyone to feel like they didn't get a fair shot.

Works for me. Thanks for doing that! I'm sure Nut will take care of it for you.

Nut- it's in the mail. Should be there on Monday. I sent a PM too, but just in case you miss it.

Also, this is a good idea. The autographs are darker than they appear in the photos, but you still might want to consider whether you want to just toss the whole thing in the wash.
