The French football team needs you! by SaleGamine 2002-07-24 02:18:55
The discontent generated by their rapid elimination during the world cup has brought the members of the French football team to the brink of economic disaster.
Two thousand Euros a day may not seem like a lot of money to you, but to a football player it could mean the difference between holidays spent golfing in Cannes or a cruise in the Bahamas. For you, two thousand Euros is nothing more than three months rent or mortgage payments. But to a football player, two thousand Euros a day will almost replace his salary.

Your commitment of two thousand Euros a day will enable a player to buy that home entertainment center, trade in the year-old BMW for a new Ferrari, or enjoy a weekend in Rome.

"How will I know I'm helping?"

Each month, you will receive a complete financial report on the player you sponsor. Detailed information about his stocks, bonds, real estate, and other investment holdings will be mailed to your home. You'll also get information on how he plans to invest the ¤5 million lump sum he will receive upon retirement. Plus upon signing up for this program, you will receive a photo of the player (unsigned). Put the photo on your refrigerator to remind you of other peoples' suffering.

"How will he know I'm helping?"

Your football 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 just in case additional funds are needed for unexpected expenses.

Simply fill out the form below.

___YES, I want to help!

I would like to sponsor a struggling French football player.
Please charge the account listed below ¤2000 per day for a player for the duration of the financial crise. Please send me a picture of the player I have sponsored, and an "Équipe de France T-Shirt".

Note: Sponsors are not permitted to contact the player they have sponsored, either in person or by other means including, but not limited to, telephone calls, letters, e-mail, or third parties. Keep in mind that the football player you have sponsored will be much too busy enjoying his free time, thanks to your generous donations. Oh yes, contributions are not tax-deductible.
