Dear Bro in law,

It is not our intention to offend or bother your family.  You have to
understand why some of us take offense to the claims.  It would be like
myself saying hell I hit more home runs than Mark McGuire don't need the fame
or the money .  So I didn't bother to have anyone officiate.  Believe me or
not i don't give a damn.  But I did it!!!  75 homers.......That seems to
lessen the accomplishment and glory of McGuires acheivements.  Rockys claims
to have beat the exiting world record by 300lb. not once but twice with
another at 1200............and for a laid back guy who has a hard time taking
care of his yard and probably has seeds left in the pumpkin now......... i
really don't believe it!!!  Sure he had some big ones did they have holes
were they full of water how the hell do any of us know??  Why the hek does a
guy like yourself who doesn't care for pumpkins bother contacting the
group.......How would you know a pumpkin was well over 1100 if it wasn't
weighed.....If the newscast was in the fall was the pumpkin on the vine??
When it was supposed to be growing til dec.....in frigid weather.........For
a guy that doesn't know much about pumpkins it seems you had some contact
with the group.  HOW DID YOU FIND US.    Iam just looking out for the newbies
so they don't go crazy and buy up all the 1061 seeds on a
fantasy..........sorry to appear so rude but i am like you bro and law
looking after my family. Pretend I am Mcguires family and your insulting us.
So give it a rest next time get it to a weigh make it a family
outing....................brock
