How is your weekend? As many guys know well, I am a very fanatic fan of Oakland Athletics. For sure, I am starting to follow some related news, organization and so on.
Today, I started to follow Craig Breslow, Oakland setup man, who is a founder of the fund for helping children cancer. Just before, he re-tweeted to me and asked me for donation as follows:
