    I'd give all 100 pts I have but it only lets me do 2 at a time. Any way around this?
    I'm in the same boat Joey. I have 492 and I'd like to donate them all. There has to be a way for SBR to override this.

      yes, i'd love to donate all 750+ of my points but as of now would be limited to 2.

        Good question. We are willing to help if either the family or a sportsbook requested. Otherwise I wouldn't know where to start.

                Only have 13 points

                Peep was a pioneer on gambling forums, kid loved the numbers side of it
                I go way back with this guy, this stuff kills me more than anything
                Online guys are my life and you feel like you lost a family member
                Hopefully his family will be ok
                Sad day

                        Very sad to hear and especially around the holidays. Way to honor Peep and help out his family SBR. I wish I had more to give, some very kind SBR posters have really stepped up.

                          I'd like to keep it open a couple of days as long as donations are still coming in. I think it's important to get this done as quick as we can for Peep's family's sake.

                          Looks like we are over $1,000 now. Just saying thank you is an understatement.

                              Save passage to the other side Peep. I'm sure you'll find a nice resting spot and a way to relive your talents. My condolences to his family and friends.

                                Just lost my dad last Thursday. I hope his family has friends and family around to help them out financially and emotionally.

                                      I just sent 241 to get to an even 12,000 points or $1,200

                                      Thanks to SBR for the opportunity to help and for bumping the value of the points to 10 cents and to all the posters that have helped (and will continue to help).

                                            Never visited his site, but if he was a friend of my SBR brethren....then he was friend of mine as well.

                                                Great job John in doing this. Peep was one of the best out there in the forums. I never had the priviledge of meeting him in person, but I can tell from those that did he was a helluva guy. I wish his family the best in moving forward.

                                                    Peep was a real gentleman always willing to help others out if he could.

                                                    An all round class act,sharp gambler,who gave all a chance to speak their minds at his forum regadless of how fuckinn nuts or off the wall they were.

                                                    He cracked me up not to long ago when he was talking about some of the nut jobs that post at his place,

                                                    for chistsake he said.........the guy posts as a cat,good stuff.

                                                    I'll miss his dry snse of humor and gambling knowledge greatly.

                                                    RIP Carl.

                                                          I wanted to pay my respects in this thread as well

                                                          Peep was the greatest poster ever

                                                          it wasn't just because he was the funniest guy on the forums either

                                                            he was protocol

                                                            he did not hesitate to try out a brand fukking new sportsbook

                                                            there wasn't ever a question about whose ratings were most respected
