Mark Gottfried accepts the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

If you're not a regular on Twitter, you may not be familiar with the Ice Bucket Challenge, which has gone viral in the last few weeks. The challenge is intended to help spread awareness of ALS, and it works like this: you douse yourself in a bucket of ice water and challenge a few other folks to do the same.

Gottfried challenged a couple members of his staff and Debbie Yow. That last nomination might hurt you during your next contract negotiation, coach, but I applaud the effort.

There's no telling where this might go next, but I hope someone makes sure that Jordan Vandenberg has to do it.
