I Learned A Valuable Life Lesson That

My Dad Was A Carpenter And I Would Work With Him During The Summer And Umpire On The Nights I Wasn't Playing.

During The Final Two Weeks Of Training, Our Students Work Simulated Game Situations In Which Our Staff Members Role-play As Players, Managers, And Coaches. They Are Given Immediate Feedback Following Each Camp Game.

As A Whole, The Managers Today Are Different In Temperament. Most Have Very Good Communication Skills And Are More Understanding Of The Umpire's Job. That Doesn't Mean They Are Better Managers. It Just Means That I Perceive Today's Managers A Bit Differently.

No One Respects The Umpire's Job More Than I Do; But, If I Were A Manager, I Would Probably Be Ejected Three Or Four Times A Season Fighting For My Team.

I Had A Great First Year And Mr. Macdonald Was My Biggest Supporter. He Gave Me The Encouragement I Needed That First Year To Get My Career Started On A Positive Note.
