I think they're going to create an award and name it after me. (Who is the person who had that really happen?)

It was me. The association I belonged to at the time has an annual awards banquet at the end of the season. Awards included "favorite partner", "most professional", "coolest under pressure" and the "Mr. T" award. The policy was to name the award after the first person to win it three years in a row. My first three years in the assn., I won the Mr. T award. Actually, it wasn't necessarily because I led the assn. in T's (although I did give out my share), it was mostly because I thought it would be cool to have that with my name on it and I lobbied hard to win the vote. No one else really wanted it, so I won easy.
So far this fall and winter season, I have only done about 20 games and the only T I have given out was for reaching over the boundary and hitting the ball on a throw in.
However, I have two games tonight and I am quite hopeful
