Congrats, Dukat! Hope you have a great time calling your first National.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Not my first National, Just my first Slow Pitch National.

I have done 2 Fast Pitch Nationals previously.

Ahhh... My mistake.

Will you be applying for NIF after this?

Same here. This will be my third National, and I've met all of my other requirements.

I consider myself to be extremely fortunate to have been offered those opportunities. Lucky, even.

My evaluator said that his only criticism of my plate game was that I missed a spot when I cleaned the plate. Go ASA mechanics. so that was cool.

I saw the guy from tidewater at the umps meeting but we have been at different fields. Sounds like central va has 3 people then. The local assoiciation lost about 15 slots due to a lack of teams, I figure.

I had an ejection for umpire abuse. They got on my partner and when time was called I walked over to the dugout, asked who the assistant coach was and promoted him to head coach. Then instructed partnet hc had been ejected and to clean up. He took over from there.

I am having fun umping and tonight i get to get to go to a Gilberto Santa Rosa concert in Tysons Corner as a birthday present (hit the 1/2 century mark this 10th).

Congratulations, Ronald. Understand you had 1B for the loser's final today.
