"CLASS ALL THE WAY"

[Reginald Rutledge]

Karim,

I know, for one, Mozeek is speaking truth, from the heart. He saw a side of you that he did not know existed and that touched him.

We watch what you do with the kids and that takes energy, patience, and love. It inspires as well.

I heard you had a special award for me and I am truly grateful for that. I don't know if I really deserve anything as I was just a casual fan of the BAM! You guys put in the work, the effort, and faith to try and stick to a ruleset foreign to you.

You deserve much credit after starting 0-3 in a system like this. You inspired those who thought 0-3 meant "playing out the string". You contacted great minds in the game and with the help of Joe Greco, you persevered! Congrats and thanks for the trophy. I will see it in time and display it proudly.
