I would like to pass on a phone call that I just recieved this morning. For all those that worked with him last year John, The big guy who freely passed out cigarettes to the ref staff, called me this morning to say hello and to say that he missed everyone. Some of you might not think that this is a big deal, but for those that have served overseas know that the wait to make a phone call is long and having the oppertunity to do so is limited. It meant alot to me that he used his one phone call to call me and it should mean alot to those of you who worked with him also.

I, as a ref, and a player often wonder if I have ever had an impact on anyone at the field.......now I know.
