UM fans never cease to amaze me.Only 3,000 more!
We may have had some rough news lately but to see that we have "raised" almost $12,000 in one day to help Brian and all the other writers is awesome! I really enjoyed the past HTTV so was glad to send some money to try and help out some. Lets try and get to that $20,000 before the end of next week! Thanks to all that helped out so far and if you have never ordered HTTV before THIS is the year to do it!! Go Blue!!
Edit: Unreal! there is a real chance to get to $20,000 tonight! I hope this shows Brian and everyone that is apart of this blog what it means to us fans.
I left for work today when it was at 7% around 3 p.m. today and I figured I would check back to see how far we got after I was done work and was expecting to be at 20% or 30%. Yeah, it's at 88% right now. Simply tremendous guys. I'm astounded.
I wish there was a liveblog for this.
Thanks for the reminder, no joke. Almost up to 18K...
Is there a special prize for being the person to put it over $20k? I am too lazy to get up and get my wallet right now, so I'll probably pay in the morning.
Also, for everyone who is buying it for the shirt: you're welcome.

But I like the work Brian does on this site, and appreciate what he's created here. He generally seems like a good dude, if a bit mopey. ;-)
So I hope if we all are amazed, he's sitting back and watching this and getting a sense of accomplishment and feeling good about it. When you put this stuff out there, it's hard to say if they're just looking or info, reading, or just hating everything. This should make him feel appreciated.
Just don't let it go to your head.
Broke $18k, decisively, just now.

I can't wait to wear this in public just for the looks. Too bad nobody will understand it here in Colorado!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
After reading this blog for about 3 years now and ignoring Brian's incessant begging for charity cash, I'd just like to announce that Brian finally managed to squeeze his first dollars out of me today.
Bastard.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
Don't just pledge $100. Pledge $133.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
Wonder if Brian's put any thought into what he might do if the total goes above and beyond (which, at this pace, it will do in, what, 15 minutes?)
There was a webcomic author that asked for $57,750 for reprinting old books of his comics. He got 1.2 million dollars.

Is totally worth it. It provides much more than the pay sites, and it manages to anger my girlfriend. HTTV will be prominently displayed on my coffee table.
Go blue.
You're dating the wrong girl. Some of us understand and share your obsession with Michigan sports and spend unhealthy amounts of time on this blog, too.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:10 PM ^
Home stretch.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:12 PM ^
1000 to go.
Lets see if we can do it in one day
March 21st, 2012 at 10:12 PM ^
This is awesome. I hope this leads to the formation of some sort of charity donation, maybe some sort of team up for Mott's.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:16 PM ^
$500 to go ... I want MUPPETS!!!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:16 PM ^
I left lurker status, gained an MGoUsername, made my first post on this beautiful blog, and bought the 2011 edition (the alternately named one) of HTTV all on the same day. Proud to be a supporter in 2012, and hopefully beyond.
Now..... how can I time it so I can put 'er over $20,000.....
LONG LIVE HTTV!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:16 PM ^
HOW... MUCH... CASH... IS... LEFT?
One grand left in the donation period.
THANK YOU!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:52 PM ^
Edit: This post is clearly irrelevant now. Instead I give you celebratory dancing.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:18 PM ^
Well that only took 8 hours to scrape together...
March 21st, 2012 at 10:19 PM ^

Someone please hit it home with 10k
March 21st, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
This is awsome ! I'm shocked at this amount of money that was generated to quickly. When i first read the post earlier in the day I questioned if we would get to the goal in 30 days. WOW !
March 21st, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
100 bucks left
March 21st, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
The one above is a little slow, we are at 98% right now.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:23 PM ^
I'm in for a rocking t-shirt.
And yes, photobomb Brian was one hillarious thread. Thanks for the hillarity, sambojangles!

Tremendous!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
And that's 20,000 dollars.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
I was hoping to be the person that put it over the top, but I was about 1 min early.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Congrats Brian!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Wow. That didn't take long at all.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:24 PM ^
Made it in just under the wire, although it appears to still be going. Was worried it might stop at $20K. Good work everybody.
March 21st, 2012 at 10:25 PM ^
Go team!
March 21st, 2012 at 10:26 PM ^
BOOM. Nice work folks.
LONG LIVE HTTV

So if I set up a Kickstarter to buy a new car you guys will chip in just to relive this feeling, right?
March 21st, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
