The giveaway prize package will consist of a surprise autographed official mbl baseball player (hint: member of the 500 HR club -no not Gary Sheffield as I will say that much-lol) and 2 other Hall of Fame autographed 8x10 pictures. (HINT): One player is the "most linkable" player in all of baseball history! (HINT 2): Both players are on the 100 Greatest Players of Baseball by The Sporting News. Also included is a package of 100+ varieties of refractor cards of various baseball and football stars and rookies. HOT rookie cards from Football and Baseball. A special Tim Tebow Topps Chrome rookie refractor card and a few other Christmas surprises (we're not telling you everything that's included cause it's CHRISTMAS for pete's sake! As Rod could tell you as he was my last contest winner, here at Enough Already- we like to give generously and surprisingly! Dave from First and Goal can attest to this as well! So can Marie from her blog! By the way...the Prize package....it will be shipped UPS.

Things to remember:

4. Contest winner will be drawn on the afternoon of Christmas Day.

We enjoy giving things away here at "Enough Already". With a little help from you and me let's give to those who need a helping hand.

It would be nice if Reps from the card companies (UD, Topps, Panini) would take place in the card contest by donating additional prizes or matching to the charities!

Thanks for a great contest.

I'm glad you're spreading the holiday cheer. My students donated over $150, so that my friend and I could buy some toys for the Toys for Tots foundation.

She matched her student's donations... and I matched mine and we were able to buy a little over $300 worth of toys.

Some of my students (seventh graders) got teary eyed when I explained how some kids will wake up this year in a cold shelter without toys and that we all need to appreciate the things we have.

This contest is awesome... if you get even one person to participate (looks like you already have two).
