Hey Dad,do you think your going to get another state playoff game?This will only be 17 in a row. How many college/minor league games will you work? Blame my smitty dad I guess. Now let me go brush off this base.

Getting the big game is no measure of whether the umpire is a Smitty, depending on what area you live in.
