Ours too must be in the book. We've made stickers (return address work great) that have our photo, names and officials number from the state on them. It's the only way I could be legible.

I think I'm going to do this (sans photo) for the pay sheets the schools have us fill out. My handwriting can be sloppy sometimes but I try and take my time on these. The name of the street I live on is rather complicated evidently as some of the iterations I've seen on my checks have been hilarious.

The post office has done a good job of figuring out where they are supposed to go.

We only put our photos on there so that when coaches do ratings later - they have an ideo who the heck they are giving the rating to. The whole rating system is not very good. But it is worse when a coach can't read your name and number. I've gotten ratings from coaches at schools I've never been to and didn't even know existed.

I have a Brother P-touch label maker. 3/8" tape. I make one label (at home prior to the games) with R/U or R/U1/U2 on the top line with our state numbers underneath on a second line. Fit perfectly in the book and takes less time than signing the book.

If I'm not the R or I'm not working with a regular partner, we just sign the books. I'm usually Bruce Froemming in those cases.

Rich, you've lost considerably more weight than Bruce.

Talking

Coach or someone else at the game asks your name? Here's my top ten:

1) Skippy Weaselpants
2) Pat McCrotch
3) Kirk Spock
4) Tony Soprano
5) Kurt Enrod
6) Bob Alou
7) Paddy O'Furniture
8) Tim Donaghy
9) Theodore Cleaver
10) Thomas E. Dewey (special reason for this one)

I don't know -- from what I've heard Bruce has slimmed down quite a bit since his retirement.
