More than 20,000 support ‘Deadliest Catch’ captain’s push to be on ‘Dancing with the Stars’
New rule for the 21st century: if there’s a cause, there is a Facebook page for it.
And why should it matter if the thing being supported is getting a crab fishing boat captain on a dance competition show.
More than 20,000 people have tossed their support to Captain Sig Hansen’s push to be on “Dancing with the Stars.”
Hansen is a key player on the Discovery Channel’s “Deadliest Catch.”
A few months ago, Hansen told a reporter and later “Tonight Show” host Jay Leno that he liked the show and would like to be on it.
See a video of Hansen discussing the show here.

Amelia, When referring to people, the correct use is “their”, not “there”.

April: Before correcting someone else’s writing - make sure you READ it correctly. No where in this blurb is there anything that ties to a person that would require “their”. As a matter of fact, “there” only appears twice, once in the singular and once in the plural (“there’s” - as in there is a cause).

@mr. e, my guess is Amelia went back in and corrected her mistake. I’ve gone back into to articles later on and information has changed.
