"I have just questioned a couple of calls. Which as far as I am concerned, "Is Baseball.""

This is what most people really believe. Not only Baseball , but almost all sports now days. And Im not talking about sports where the players are paid professionally to play. Although, they probably respect the officials a lot more than the amateurs.

You keep missing the point, Coaching youth players is not about you. It is about them and the Game.

The Game, well thats simple. Any rulebook or manual can help you in teaching the basics of how to pitch, catch and throw and hit.

Them, your players. Well, how you talk , walk and breath will be your mark that each and everyone will remember you by. That is, if they want to remember you.

Why must you insist on questioning the calls?

I agree, respect is a two way street. Which means, if you truley want it, then you TRULEY have to give it. Even if the official is horrible. Bite your tongue, Suck it up and show them who is really the respectful person on the field.

It also saves on the cost of rolaids and mallox. Good Luck.
