[MRCA] MRCA Spring Meet

[Robert Flory]

Maybe I haven't been direct enough.

I have been offering several times over the last months to be the guy to
make the diving catch in the end zone.  Until Dale mentioned his possible
interest, no one has said they are interested.  Dale's time availability
does not mesh with mine so so far we do not even have 2 interested parties
that can be there at the same time.

My offer expires soon.

Rob
