I received my copy of the 2008 Ducksnorts Baseball Annual in the mail today and was pleasantly surprised when I saw my name in the Acknowledgement section. The author, Geoff Young, writes about the San Diego Padres, and baseball in general, on several websites...one of them being a site that I read on a daily basis - www.ducksnorts.com. Geoff started Ducksnorts over 10 years ago with the intention of writing about his favorite baseball team - the Padres.

When Geoff asked for volunteers to help proofread and edit his work I immediately offered my assistance. I poured over a draft copy of the chapter entitled "Padres Farm Report", diligently noting the few suggestions and corrections I saw fit. The entire chapter was a very easy read, so the endeavor was definitely more "fun" than "work".

Geoff's writing is informative and factual, but also entertaining. I recommended it to anyone who is a fan of the Padres, or just baseball in general.
