Mike,

I agree with you as I know Billy P as I had him for a school and for a UIC at a National. He conducted on the field mechanics for the National crew the day we came in, and we had to be there the night before and go out to the fields early! Then after we'd sweated our butts off, very little time was left to shower, dress in business clothes and get to the umpires and coaches luncheon. Then the opening cerimonies. Whew! Not many folks stayed up late that night in the hospitality suite with their adult beverages! We were too tired! LOL
I learned some different techniques from him that I'd never learned in 10 years of regional clinics and several national schools.
AZBIGDAWG, remember about the word assume?
Lastly, if you deviate, communicate! (somehow, someway)
