Cool Ump

Have done games for the local league(PONY) but nothing else. Not to many opportunities besides schools. Hope to get some good advice here. I'm from lower Texas along the border!

Well, damn, fellas... Don't welcome the guy (or woman) all at once!

Welcome to the board, RGVOfficial. Glad to meet you.

Great, another ****ing Texan!

That's okay, though. One really good storm and Weslaco may not be in Texas anymore.

Just kidding....about that storm thing.

Yep, we defer to southern hospitality.

Welcome from me, also, RGV!

Welcome RGV. Ignore the Yankee from Delaware in all matters geographically oriented.

You will learn much from these boards. And, believe it or not, even from the Delaware Yankee. You will find that he, and Wadeintocalifornia may be a little cantankerous from time to time, but that is their nature because we all know that deep down they both wish they, too, were from Texas.

With the amount of Californians flocking here (including myself), I can understand that. My California license plates have not been well received out on the road.

That's because y'all go too slow. In Texas, if all six wheels are touching the ground (note, I didn't say pavement), you are going too damn slow!
