Props to the mail folks!

I live in North West Ohio and our weather is horrible today. We are under a level 3 snow emergency and they are calling for -45 wind chill this evening. The strange and exciting part is that the mail is still running today. I know that from time to time we have a few on here who bash the mail carriers, but today is definitely a props day from my point of view. I never expected to see mail running when the real temp is around zero, winds are gusting to 30mph and we got around a foot of snow overnight! I'd like to tip my cap to those folks making it happen!

Agreed. I've lived in Cincinnati since August. The post office employees here are the nicest and most competent of anywhere I have lived in the U.S.

I returned on Sunday after being out of town for two weeks, and I had three baseballs postmarked from Hall of Famers in my mail box. I think the names on the return envelope could tempt some people. But I haven't had to worry about anyone stealing anything or "losing" anything in the mail.

I got a few envelopes today along with UPS deliveries, too. I honestly thought they would take the day off due to the weather.

I live in central Ohio and I got 1 TTM back (Adam Kennedy) and a giant box of 2000 or so rookie and prospect cards. I sorted through them and got somewhere around 200 that were 2010-2013 and actual prospect cards (EEE, contenders, bowman, pro debut, heritage ML) that I can use either for TTM or IP in the minors, plus a whole bunch of other cards of current MLB players. Best of all, I got a few cards that were better than I expected (Machado 2010 bowman chrome, Harvey 2010 bowman chrome and EEE, Myers 2011 pro debut) that were in amazing condition.

Other than the fact that they bend my 8x10's, the USPS has been awesome lately.

Well I live in Atlanta and my post office is downright incompetent. The give congress a run for their money.

Up here in New York the UPS man just came to my house to drop off a package. He literally sprinted from the truck and back. Wind Chill of negative 30 right now, so I give him props.
