Thanks again guys

I will keep your father in my thoughts. Lung Cancer took my dad in 1972 when I was 12. My mom was diagnosed with Lung Cancer a few weeks before I was about to graduate college a couple of years ago (I went back to school late in life). 13 weeks of daily chemo and twice-a-week radiation and two years later mom is still cancer free. I wish they had that level of medical knowledge in 1972. My dad is the reason I love baseball. He loved it. He taught me how to throw, hit and catch. He played ball growing up with future MLB-er Don Mincher. Papa was a Cards fan (KMOX), Daddy was a Braves fan so I had to be different and became a Cubs fan (I wish someone would have told me in 1967 how that might not have been a great decision)

Like you (and my guess a lot of others) OOTP is my outlet for 'reliving' my youth of dad at my ball games, baseball cards, pickup games with my friends and later Strat-O-Matic baseball.

I join you in thanking Markus and his crew for creating and maintaining this awesome game. I look forward to every new release and the hours of fun this game provides.

Hang in there!

Best wishes!

Your father and you will be at the top of my prayer list.

May nothing but good things come your way for now and forever.

Not much of a prayer, but I will send you as much good karma as I can.

Brother Padreman,

Our prayers (mine, wife's and our herd of cats) here in East Texas are with you as well.
