That happens a lot, Pete. And it's impossible for an assignor to tell whether he's got a slacker or a guy with unbelievably bad luck. In any event, when you turn back more than 3-4 assignments in a season, that's the time to say to your assginor, "I cannot make the commitment you require of me," and hang up your high school plate shoes.

Jim:
I didn't turn back 4 assignments in my entire career. I called the finals of the NBC Texas State Tournament on Sunday, had cancer surgery on Monday, went home on Saturday, and I made my date for a local adult tournament on the following Friday.
We don't do re-runs at eUmpire.com. Since they are always "posted," anyone can read your essays as long as he's a member. As I understand from his posts, Pete is not a member at eUmpire. He wants you to post your article -- for free. (grin)
BTW: I thought there were only 5 parts to the Roder interview, not 6. Good for us!
