Happy Holidays to all.

Normally I refrain from responding to these, but I can't resist this one because Jeff gets his College BB from me.

Jeff, be careful about the above quote. You contacted us in the right year, when we had several new College opportunities. To say you didn't have to prove yourself is so not true Jeff, so be careful. You got a couple of very low-key JUCO games unseen, you did well, and you got more. To continue working College level ball (whether it be JUCO or D-III), we are reproving our commitment every year. There are too many new College umpires knocking at the door that it pushes all of us to work harder each year, each game.

And ohhh...you don't go past DeKalb for College games? Dude, I'm finishing up the schedule this week. Can you say Kishwaukee?!?!?

Merry Xmas to all....all we want for Xmas is Mark Prior to stay in our rotation!!
