If you can’t read it, it says…

Dear Boss,
From one boss to another, please excuse _________ for being late to work Tuesday morning.
_________ is a huge Hawks fan and just couldn’t bear to miss watching Monday night’s game against the Clippers on SportSouth, which tipped off at 10:38 ET.
As a token of our appreciation for your kindness, we’d like to invite you, the boss, to the Hawks-Grizzlies game on Wednesday. We expect — will buy a ticket, but if the two of you show this letter at the box office, your ticket will be taken care of.
Thanks for your support,
STEVE KOONIN
