Since i have had the pleasure of meeting several of the distaff websters, here is my list of 5 more HSBBWebsters I would like to meet:

One Player's Pop ... because I hope we have a lot in common in the future
FrankF ... because I have enjoyed "talking" with him in PM's and the like and I know we have a lot in common already
Bullwinkle ... because even tho he lives fairly close by, we have not met and considering how he makes me laugh (and even itch when borrowing his avatar) in cyber-space, I am sure he is even more fun in person
MN-Mom ... because she is a selfless wonderful human being and friend
Bob a k a Chief Cook and Bottle Washer a k a the Grand Poobah .. just because

I'm weaseling out on this one, instead coming up with five groups:

HSBBW and MN-Mom -- To say thank you for years of knowledge, pleasure and vision.

To our pro parents, all of you, that I dream I could join you one day, sit in the upper deck (I must be in the front row), watch our sons, down a tall one and be able to say, Yep, it don't get any better than this.

TR (even though we met once), PGStaff, bbscout and a bunch of others, just to sit around and talk baseball.

To bring all the baseball powerbrokers into one room, tell them to sit down, shut up and listen to a debate of all the game's issues with folks like Beenthere, Hokie, Redbird and some others, folks with passion, wit and a little chutzpah, too. That would take care of most of the game's imperfections.

And, finally, to the visitors who read but might not post, or even register. You came here to play, didn't you? So go warm up (the keyboard). Pitcher's arm is getting tired.
I had some thoughts like VaMan, but a slightly different foremat.

Gals
'03Parent - provided a tremedous amount of support and information for me, wouldn't mind if my son followed her son's college path either!
OldbatNever - one of the early folks I talked with here and a friend
MNMom - we all have much to thank her for
UKMB - one of the whittiest women I've met
LuvBB - compassionate, smart person with lots of knowledge about the college world

Guys
OPP - a male version of UKMB
Cleveland Dad - a friend who's very smart in so many ways
Al McCormick - one of the funniest guys I've met here and smart baseball guy
Coach May - I LOVE his coaching style
PG - "baseball world" knowledge and a truly nice guy

TN Guys
Fungo (again) - more wisdom that one person should be allowed (must bring Mrs. Fungo as well)
Bama Bomber (sort of a TN guy) - a nice guy according to my son Wink
HiwasseeVol - great loyalty to his TN baseball and just a great love for baseball
Bizazz - see HVs
Bob H and Mrs. H - one of the nicest folks I've ever met and we all owe him soooooooooo much

that all said, I'd like to meet the sons of all these folks too. I've said many times in different ways that there's truly some of the most special people in the world here - folks that I feel very blessed and fortunate to have gotten to know.

Oops - can't forget
Players
AK - bring that report card and your parents
DJeter2 - between he and I though, no one else would be able to talk!

Oops again, how could I even consider leaving off two of my favorite chat room buddies as well as websters that just bring much to our place!
Chat buddies
Prepster

I can't name a top five it's just impossible.

All the dads because I know how passionate dads of players are.

The moms because they see it from a side that I can not. They offer insight that only a mom can. They are invaluable to any program in my opinion.

The coaches. Because you can learn so much from these guys. Share experiences and ideas.

And the guys here that just love the game. They dont have any kids still playing they just love baseball and everything about it.
I have had the pleasure of meeting Infielddad, Justbaseball,123KMom, Futureback.mom and talking on the phone with Fungo and TRHit. Consultant is a very dear friend who I have known for years.

Formerobserver, HSBBWeb Bob, Orlando, MN-Mom, PGstaff, Bullwinkle, HIVol, Bighit15, OPP and itsinthegame are some of the people that I would like to meet.
