Hi Chris,
Just wanted to take a minute to let you know how much we have enjoyed listening to the games this season.
We know it is not over yet, but we will be in and out the next several days so we wanted to send this email now.
We have listened FAITHFULLY, have only missed a handful of games the entire season and we have been very impressed with the diplomacy of your broadcasts---very professional and "kind" to all players. Sometimes it can be difficult to put a positive spin on things but you do a nice job.
We really enjoyed our trip to Appleton in July and the people were great, the field was beautiful,....loved the cheese curds too!
If you ever make it to Pittsburgh, look us up. We'll give you the grand tour.
All the best,
The Meyer Family
