WOW!

I don't know how to do all of that and really did it to hook the ole guy up.

This morning I had an email from his daughter in my Inbox:

Hi Mike, Yes.....I saw my Dad at Easter, and he was thrilled!!!!! He's written a letter to you and sending some photos and my brother Tom, is making up some good photos to send to you. They were all thrilled. The jersey is really awesome. Thank you so much. Yes, you made an old Redskin grin from ear to ear. And now that we have winter weather again in the Midwest....it's perfect. Feel free to give him a call sometime if you'd like, he'd really appreciate it. He also liked the Bar B Que T shirt. Good luck in all your pools....Cheers, Betsey

I'll share the letter and photos with you guys when I get them. If I call him this week I'll ask if I can record the call and maybe get him to do something like saying.......

"This is Ted Lapka from the 1940's Washington Redskins telling you check out thewarpath.net for all your Redskins information." or something. lol

peace and thanks guys for the warm welcome back
