OT: See you next Spring Training


I don't post here as much as I used to, so I don't know how many people recognize me, but I just want to let those of you know me here (and don't already know this through Facebook and/or real life) that I'll unfortunately be away from the community until January or February as I'm taking my platoon to Afghanistan this Friday. So at least I get a King Felix start to send me off Thursday night. Hopefully I get some form of sporadic internet enough to check up on the Mariners' season but either way I don't expect I'll be on LL.

Also, cool story, I got in contact with the Mariners telling them I was a lifelong Mariners fan and wanted to throw out a first pitch before I deployed, and they said that while they were booked in that department, I could get 4 tickets behind home plate to a game of my choosing (I picked Saturday's since I already had tickets for Friday and Sunday). They gave me a bunch of promotional items in the game that they'll be handing out later in the season, along with putting something pretty cool up on the board between innings:

So I say, thank you Mariners and stay classy. Any luck you all plan on wishing me I suggest you instead save for the Ms, they'll need it. If you remember me by anything while I'm gone make it Jack Z's Brain Spiders.
