Since his wife already outed him on Facebook, I believe @Aging_Arbiter has something he'd like to say here.

(And congrats, my friend)

Congratulations!

You'll be there with my friend Dave Miller, from San Diego. He's from our neighboring district. Great guy, we've done many games and training together.

Have fun and make sure you tell us all about it!

Quite the honor. I'm sure you worked a long time to achieve that!

Don't suck!

[ArchAngel72]

Congrats man!

 

We up here in New Hampster had a guy do the last game at the plate last year I thought he did a hell of a game.

We also have 2 guys this year doing other WS series from D2 up here as well as a D1 guy going to another Regional? 

Its great seeing so many guys around getting the chance to jump up and do well.

 

Hey AA Try not to suck!   🤪

[aaluck]

Congratulations.  I'm sure you will have a wonderful time.

Please let us know what games you have.

What, in our reviews of ya? Pffft… we’re the least of your concerns. It’s the millions of viewers you’ll have on ya, on ESPN, as either (or both!) coach(es) invoke video reviews of your and your crew’s calls for the most trivial of things… just because they can. 

[ousafe]

Can't wait to see you on Jomboy!

[The Man in Blue]

Don’t worry, we’ll all be yelling correct rule interpretations at you!  Just trying to help.  😁

yeah, that's why I'll be going dark with instabookface for 2 weeks in August.

Met Dave at orientation in May.  It's a small world.  We had a veteran from SD come through the Wounded Warrior Umpire Academy, that was trying to get more games & advance in Little League.  I put him in touch with Dave.

Apparently, we won't know schedules until the night before.  I'm not going to be online while up there.  But if you see a fat kid that is dressed like an umpire, and has #47 on his sleeve............

#47? Huh. I always envisioned you as a #88, to go with you initials. 🤔

Well, at least you’re not a #2. 😲

#88 was 2nd choice smart @$$😁

[ArchAngel72]

Hmm I thought it would be #44
