NHL LOCKOUT.....you can help

Hundreds of Professional Hockey players in our very own nation are

locked out, living at well below the seven-figure salary

level. And as if that weren't bad enough they could be deprived of

their life-giving pay for several months, possibly longer, as a result

of the lockout situation.

But you can help! For only $20,835 a month, about $694.50 a day (that's less than the

cost of a large screen projection TV) you can help an NHL player remain economically

viable during his time of need. This contribution

by no means solves the problem as it barely covers the annual minimum

salary, but it's a start, and every little bit will help!

Although $700 may not seem like a lot of money to you, to a hockey

player it could mean the difference between spending the lockout

golfing in Florida or on a Mediterranean cruise. For you, seven

hundred dollars is nothing more than a month's rent, half a mortgage

payment, or a month of medical insurance, but to a hockey player, $700 will partially replace his daily salary.

Your commitment of less than $700 a day will enable a player to buy

that home entertainment center, trade in the year-old Lexus for a new Ferrari, or enjoy a weekend in Rio.

HOW WILL I KNOW THAT I'M HELPING?

Each month, you will receive a complete financial report on the player

you sponsor. Detailed information about his stocks, bonds, 401(k),

real estate, and other investment holdings will be mailed to your

home. Plus, upon signing up for this program, you will receive an

unsigned photo of the player lounging during the lockout on a beach

somewhere in the Caribbean (for a signed photo, please include an

additional $150). Put the photo on your refrigerator to remind you of

other peoples' suffering.

HOW WILL HE KNOW I'M HELPING?

Your NHL player will be told that he has a SPECIAL FRIEND who just

wants to help in a time of need. Although the player won't know your

name, he will be able to make collect calls to your home via a special

operator in case additional funds are needed for unforeseen expenses.

YES, I WANT TO HELP!

I would like to sponsor a locked out NHL player.
