Default MLB "Tribute for Heroes"...VOTE for Forum Member

To All,

I saw a recent thread about the MLB All Star Fan Fest and thought I'd mention this even though it's just about over...

A recent promotional union between People Magazine and Major League Baseball geared towards honoring military veterans has entered its final stage and I am fortunate enough to be one of the three remaining nominees with the chance to represent the club of my choosing…the New York Yankees…at the 2013 All Star Game at Citi Field in NY.

I’d be truly grateful if you took a moment to check out the following website to read my biography and place a vote…I wouldn’t mind if you told others about it either ….The voting ends tonight at midnight, but there is time to log some votes:

http://mlb.mlb.com/tribute/2013/index.jsp
Once you are at the site, locate and click on the NYY logo...find Jonathan Popovich's image...click on it and vote.

Again, please vote and vote often…..maybe I’ll see some of you there!

Thanks,

Jonathan

All three of you deserve to win but I just tallied my vote for you, Jonathan. Hope you win. If you haven't done it yet you should put this post on the main page; you'll get a lot more eyeballs. Everybody put in a vote for Jonathan, only takes about seven seconds - he's a pono guy.

The copy feature works well. I can't think of a better use of it. All of our veterans deserve a standing ovation...

Jonathan,

I took a moment and voted for you, too. Good luck.

Kawika was right! The whole process only took about seven seconds.

Best Regards,

Couldn't you have picked a different team to represent? Kind of hard to vote for anything with Yankees involved

You got my vote (even though I am a die hard Red Sox fan and Kalynn is way cuter than you).

All joking aside, many thanks to you and your family for your service and sacrifices.

You got my vote. I also voted for one of the Cincinnati Reds heroes since they're my favorite team.

Kudos to MLB for honoring this great country's "true heroes"!

My sincere thanks to all of you...this is so very much appreciated. I really hope to use the platform as a way to increase the veteran outreach potential at the Vet Center. Anyway, still 5 hours to go here on the East Coast....keep those voets coming in!

Best to All,
Jonathan

Done and done and done...I voted three times. It says vote as many times as you like and it will let you vote more than once. Good luck Jonathan!
