Yeah!

Here's a picture of me from a couple years ago. But I got too much heat and got a Platinum.

I am somewhat impressed with the thought the GD boys put into these items. But, I will never wear anything else but my Carlucci, and 17" shin guards are not long enough for me.

I look forward to the evaluations on the gear.

As an aside, I will be at the Chicago NCAA meeting next year. This is the 1st one I have ever been to. Do they have a lot of people selling gear at these meetings? What are these meetings like?

And as we get close to the gathering, let's see if some of us could meet sometime and break bread together, or drink beverages of our choice...

Do you have this one for sale, since you have moved up to something "better"? I like the way this one looks....

Oh, and are those the keys to the batters box in his right hand?

That shot of MLB umpire Bill Summers appeared in a 1959 issue of Life Magazine. I've seen an enlargement of the photo - those are not keys in his right hand, it's a brush.

Looks like you have let the air out of the balloon and have your keys in hand. Everyone should know the strikezone is now(or was) nose to toes and dugout to dugout.
