Congrats to Coach JM

Despite his humble beginnings CoachJM has made great strides in leaving his past behind and well on his way to becoming a very good umpire.

Coach took Rookie of the Year honors at the Fox Valley Blues annual banquet and honors ceremony last week.
FVB is thee premier IL association and undoubtedly one of the top in the country so taking ROTY honors is quite an achievement.

CONGRATS JM

Congratulations JM. (I cannot, and will not, bring myself to refer to you as a...ahem, gasp, choke...coach.)

It's as if you guys think there is something wrong with being a coach.

Congratulations JM!

Way to go JM!

You'll need to move up to the big bucks games to afford getting your kid into one the colleges you were touring.
