I know the answer is probably going to be none or close to none. But, how much do you allow/take from an assisant coach?
|
To quote Tee, "assistant coaches DO NOT EXIST".
|
Assistant coach? It doesn't bother me to hear them yell "Take a turn" or "Back, Back!" That's about it.
|
Thank ya....
|
How much do I allow? He's allowed to bring me a lineup, or say Howyadoin' Blue on his way to his box. That's about it.
How much do I take? Implies he's complaining about something. If it's tame, I might tell head coach that I hear some buzzing from the coaches direction that needs to stop. If not... buhbye. |
I don't go as far as Tee by not acknowledging their existence. I might answer a question if asked nicely, but I'm not taking much grief from one. Last Sunday, I had a 1B coach, who, after a called 3rd strike to end the half inning said something like "come on Blue, it's where it crosses the plate, not where the catcher catches it" as he walked by me to his dugout. I looked him in the eyes as he walked past and made no comment until he was several feet away and then said "note that I am ignoring you", and I immmediatly thought to myself, "I just baited him", and I guess I did, but he did not take the bait and all went smoothly from there. He did not make any more comments. I am NOT going to get into an arguement with an assistant
|
Just making sure I'm not the only one.....
So in other words... it doesn't take much to lanuch one? |
No - not much at all. I would have launched the one that DG baited.
|
Assistants are like children. They are to be seen and not heard.
Peace |
I normally shoot the stop sign at them, if that doesn't shut em up, see ya.

Gentlemen,
I am currently involved with coaching two baseball teams. On one team, I am the Manager/Head Coach while on the other, I am an Assistant Coach. On the team where I am the Assistant Coach, should an occasion arise during a game where we believe the umpire(s) may have misapplied a rule in making a decision, I represent our team in the discussion with the umpire(s). I suggest that this is proper, legal, and the <b>team's</b> decision rather than the umpires'. What do you think? JM |
