Someone explain this to me ... please ... please ... please

If I said to you all:

"Since I love AutomotiveForums so much and I want to support the little guys trying so hard to race their cars and show them, I am willing to sponsor you guys. Any of you, all of you.

All you have to do is send me $50 and I will get you vinyl of Jekyl Hyde Racing to prove that you are sponsored by me.

Please e-mail for paypal address. I want to support and sponsor as many of you as possible. In fact, we can do this in a group buy, I'll 4 cars for $150 ... so get your friends together and split the costs. You can get sponsored even cheaper!"

... I suspect 99% of you would tell me to go fly a kite.
So let me ask you this .... WHY do so many people send $80 to Sport Compact Pro to BUY (!??!!?!) sponsorship?

Why, why, why? How is it not obvious that that is the most bogus deal out there? You do NOT pay for sponsorship. That's insane.

See applicable thread here:
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul....php?p=3108517

I can't imagine giving my sponsors my credit card info ....

/rant

Sorry ... that "deal" just ticks me off to no end.
