Well, I won some cash in an election bet. My ethics don't allow me to
spend someone else's money on myself so I want to find a legitimate
charity, hopefully bicycle oriented to whom I can donate the winnings.

I will double the won amount and return the charity receipt to the
loser (HAHHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAAAHAAHA).

Local to me, but they have the right idea.

This Christmas alone, 25,000 underprivileged children in the Greater
Houston Area will receive the surprise of their young lives: an
undreamt-of visit from Santa and his Elves.

Fully 20,000 of these kids will get brand-new bicycles.

That's awesome. I love the story of Durwood Merril and how they have done
things around Hooks.
The rest of the country likes to [censored] on Texas, but there are a lot of good
things that happen down there.

Why not give it all to Tyler's legal fund? I can't think of a better
cause, can you?

Anyone involved MLB willing to name an "All-[censored] Team" is OK in my book.

What did he do in Hooks (other than live there)?

He founded and ran a charity to help kids and families get through the holidays
with whatever they needed. He was totally hand s on. Collecting supplies and
delivering them. One year, and maybe more they rehabbed a bunch of donated
bikes and got them out to kids.
Here's a little bit on it, but his book "You're out and you're Ugly too!"
tells how it came about.
