Maybe Paul McCartney is his ghostwriter.

Congrats to REI, and to all the other officials who worked any level of post-season play.

That's the "external" recognition for what you've done. Equally important ins the "internal" recognition -- if you are a better umpire this year than you were last year, then yuo deserve credit and recognition for making yourself better.

My congrats, too. I can now pick you out of a lineup, REI, if necessary

On my last visit to PDX, I saw some PBUA umpires work and had some beers with a big group of them after their first round playoff games. A great organization and great bunch of guys (and umpires). I also watched Tim C put in a stellar plate performance in a game that would never end.
