Our company is CHANGING one umpire at a time and will continue to change the way the umpire industry is outfitted.

I will never wear shirts from this supplier, ever.

This brings to mind the saying "you are not bigger than the game".

Well said by a man with a clear belief in and healthy respect for the baseball gods.

That's the letter I saw on the other board.

Man, that's funny.

Isn't that something, Seth? Incredible, really.

Contrast that guy's attitude with that of Rex's at Between The Lines, Jim at ump-attire or Mike at Purchase Officials Supplies. Good grief!

Rex is by far my favorite supplier. A tremendous selection when compared to the competition.

Thanks, I'm going to! I should be down 50 lbs. or more total by my Saturday weigh in. I'm excited about getting my 50 lb. Nutrisystem teddy bear to go with the other four I have received already! Seems kind of hokey, but it is a motivator for me, so what the heck.

Just remember, its not what you weigh, its how you play! Or, put another way (in a more fitness minded context) body weight varies due to muscle size, not necessarily amount of unhealthy fat. I recommend you get on a weight/resistance training program (if you aren't already) and then at some point, not worry about the weight but rather the fat loss. If you wear a 48 jacket and size 34 pants, who cares what your weight is (except the insurance company, but that's a different issue).

A weight loss quest is a refocusing on an area that got out of focus. It is a remarkable achievement that opens the door to other monumental achievements by bringing about a mental and physical balance that a person needs to perform at their best at whatever they do. Many people overlook what a wonderful thing it does to the mind when the body improves.

Steve's a good example for everyone, and I am sure everyone pulls hard that he continues his quest with aplomb.
