Thanks fellas!

Awesome!! Good luck Tim!!

good luck to you as well Tim!

I am a g7, and waiting crossing my fingers with you Dave!

haha I bet…………I think the “decision day” is at 6 months………….so hang in there just a little bit longer

I’m thinking that’s a possibility as well. I just wish there was a bit more communication; the waiting is eating me up:))))

Coach, with baseball season in full gear I have been thinking about you. IMO, the long wait must mean they must really like your idea and are doing some in depth due diligence. I really hope this works out for you!

Still sitting here waiting patiently for a decision from Rawlings. We are 4 months past the presentation. Are there any more G7’s waiting patiently as well?

Thanks all!!!

Looks like this search has turned into the Coach’s Corner. Knock it out of the park Dave. Great job.

good luck to you Coach. Getting in why Rawlings would be AMAZING!

Dave Dave!!!! You rock so far so good!! Crossing my fingers for you!

Way to go Coach!

Bottom of the ninth, Tied game, Full count… The pitch is off speed change-up over the outside corner of the plate… You hesitate, You swing… You just connected solidly and the ball launches off the bat high and down the base line… It is going deep right field… It’s going, going…

I can’t imagine your feeling of anticipation… lol

Best of success to you Coach!

Glad you’re still in the game Dave! Hang tight! Good luck!!!!

Still sitting at a G7 almost 2 months after the presentation. Enjoying this ride!!

Coach, being alive is a great thing. Stay green. All the best!

Closing in on 30 days since the presentation and I’m still at a G7!! The butterflies are beginning to stir. I’m hoping that still being alive is a good sign!!

Thanks Scott and as always….great job

Hey gang !! Dave Vaccaro just hit me with the wiffle ball bat to remind me that I have been slammed and hadn’t been in the forum !! Sorry about that.

Meeting with Rawlings went really well and Geoff and I had some crazy travel on the way back (nothing new there !!). Once back was working on creating the tech packets that will be going out very shortly through the NIST Made in America program. We have 9 items that are standing, some we have reached out on already due to state of product, and others were able to create without needing more info.

Rawlings really felt good about this presentation, said the community as a whole had really ramped up their ideas from previous meetings as well.

Dashboards are all updated as of last week, so if you are still green…you are still running the bases… hopefully we get some of these products rounding third and heading into home (Home with Rawlings !!)

Good discussions with their team, spent good amount of time discussing the products, how they would appeal to market, and some of the marketing ideas behind them.

Will continue to update, the process will easily take into late March as american manufacturers have time to review packets , create cost quotes and we will compile and than regroup with Rawlings to consider.

Good luck to all still swinging !!

I haven’t heard anything. It’s early and I’m sitting at G7. I was curious who else is in this position as well. Also…is there any feedback that can be given as far as how the presentations went last Thursday?

Any news on this yet?

Great news Dave! Glad you moved on. Good luck to you and to everybody else who made it to presentation!

Scott,

Awesome guys!! I was out of this one a while ago, but good luck to all of you still in it to win it!!

Good luck Coach! I was surprised that both of my baseball entries in this one went out at R4………………but as always, I love pulling for my fellow coaches. Good luck to you in achieving your G8!

Sounds like the runner’s safe coach. Good luck to you, Robert and everyone in. Papa, are you still in this one?

I just received a G7 on my dashboard about an hour ago. Therefore, my idea was presented today. Being that the presentation is over is it safe to assume that if Rawlings did not want to look into the idea more they would have moved me from G5 to R8 instead of G5 to G7?

Hi Robert! Sorry about the Rs….but it happens to all of us! Good luck tomorrow to everyone whose still green!

Tony and Charlie sorry to hear about your R-7’s
I agree with Betsy 100% percent (HI Betsy), it’s almost over. Good Luck to everyone.

Sorry Tony, I posted on the other thread..R-7 here too. We are counting on you coach. Win the championship.:))))))Best of luck Dave, hit it out of the park.

Sorry to hear that Tony…..I’m still sitting at G5 at 10:30pm. I don’t know what to think here.

R7 the day before presentation………….My assumption is that it didn’t make it through the Final IP. It was a fun ride while it lasted.

Good Luck Dave!

Excellent Tony…..Now I’m waiting for my G5 to change. Hopefully I’ll be joining you!! I am so confident with this idea. I hope I’m not setting myself up for a letdown.

Robert, I think there’s a 100% chance it’ll be done by then! :-)
Good luck you guys….let the dashboard mania begin! How exciting!!!

Now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Like a G6, Like a G6
Now now now now now now I’m feelin so fly like a G6
Like a G6, Like a G6
Now now now now now now I’m feelin so fly like a G6

Let’s keep it rolling!

Are there any other G5’s out there patiently waiting to see what happens in stage 6?

Each IP search is unique but the presentation date is Thursday, Jan. 26th.
There’s a good chance it’ll be done by then.
Good luck everyone.

Can someone shed some light on how long it usually takes to do a thorough IP search?

All right Dave! Congrats and let’s keep it going!

Any G6’s out there yet for this search?

Congrats Tony…I’m right there with you. Good Luck!!

I’m out. R4 this morning.

Good luck to everyone that is still in!

My 1st G5!

Ok got it…it’s TBA. Thanks Penster!!

Hi Dave:

If you look on your dashboard and click on your submission it shows presentation date. That said, it may or may not have been scheduled yet.

Good luck to you!

Anyone know when the presentation date is?

Congratulations Guys… Best of Luck! Stay GREEN!!!!!
I’m out at R4…. Arrrrrrrrrrrrggggg!

My second G4! Still have 1 at G3 in this search as well. Cross your fingers for me!

Good Luck Chris!!
