you mentioned black hats but didnt say anything other than some requiring them. would you ever wear a black hat with a navy or powder (with navy trim) shirt? i kind of hope not, but im guessing you just didnt follow that point up.

The same discussion about ball bags/hats etc., is simultaneously occurring on the other forum, and I got hollered at for not mentioning gray bags over there.

If the ball bags are black, the hat should be black too. It should match the darkest color of the uniform shirt being worn.

If the ball bags are navy, the hat should be navy too. It should match the darkest color of the uniform shirt being worn.

If the ball bags are gray, the hat should match the darkest color of the uniform shirt being worn.

If the ball bags are Honig's leather, the hat should be a Nazi Gestapo officer's hat, with matching a$sless chaps!

My comments were complete and backed by other examples in Evans clinic.

Also, if you remember the umpire strike this last year, many, many Evans graduates commented the exact things I have said.

Christ Dave, Evans says these things over-and-over -- for you and Sandlin to protect him is silly. He wouldn't say these things unless he felt them.

Jim Evans wants to sell his school. Jim Evans has a very strong ethic for the people he trains. Jim Evans actually made fun of our "Charlie" (a life long umpire that has trained umpires for over 20 years).

You have the right to defend anyone you want . . . we have no respect for each other and that is fine . . . but Jim Evans does not need you to protect his comments.
