I have never heard of coaches "red-lining" guys for " breaking up their little meetin'. Give me a break. Some of the stuff I hear on this board is a bunch of crap sometimes. Guys...listen..and trust me......WE BREAK UP TRIPS TO THE MOUND IF THE COACH IS OUT THERE TOO LONG!! And being out there too long is 15-20 Mississippi's......... Chris
I amazed by the notion that people have that because Tee says he hasn't broken up a conference in ten years it immediately must follow that coaches hold picnics on the mound.

Anyone even consider that the possibility that the conferences remain reasonable in duration? Why on earth must you jump to the conclusion that because A equals B, B must equal C.

Amazing.

I've seen Tee work. I've seen conferences in his games. I have not seen lawn chairs or even minute long conversations.
