I've heard the same things...if you want to see all situations (well most), go to Jimmy's where they simulate those things so you can actually see the situations that you might only see one or two times per year. Jimmy is also a licensed educator so he knows how to teach and how students learn.

Go to Harry's if you want to umpire actual baseball games, but you might not see the same situations since you're doing live games. Chances are, you may not learn as much. I haven't been to either one, and I've talked to people who have gone to one or the other and they both said that they learned a lot and IMO, they're good umpires too.
