My apologies for this break from TV-related blogging. For those of you who follow my NFL dick-jokery over at Kissing Suzy Kolber, you know that I’ve been fundraising for a charity called Fight Gone Bad IV, which raises money for the Wounded Warrior Project and Athletes for a Cure (non-profits that aid wounded veterans and prostate cancer research, respectively). Fight Gone Bad culminates this Saturday with a brutal, punishing workout that will likely leave me a sweaty, simpering mess curled up in a puddle of my own vomit. The fact that I’ve offered to post photos of such humiliation on KSK has so far netted almost $7000 for FGB, more than any of the other 3000-plus athletes participating.

I obviously don’t need to lecture anyone about how combat and cancer are Bad Things, but needless to say the veteran angle here is especially close to my heart. The Wounded Warrior Project is dedicated to raising awareness of what servicemen and -women have experienced in combat, and it provides an outreach program for veterans to help prevent them from succumbing to the substance abuse and mental illness that quietly plagues so many vets after they return home.

If you have two minutes and a couple extra dollars — any amount is welcome and appreciated — please donate HERE. Thanks for your time, and sorry for the interruption.
