Of course as an umpire we don't care what a player thinks about a game especially when they are losing - same for coaches.

But in the grand scheme, what the players think of you goes a long way.

thanks

Wink

If the strike zone was so bad, why are the rest of the Braves not crying and complaining. Even Bobby Cox was not complaining. Shut up Chipper and swing the bat.

Rarely used it. Called Boss, "come train me." U, like No.

His head came unravelelled after he beat the Hooter's rap and when he remarried, he built a new mansion on the corner of, I swear this is true, Bowen-Jones Road.

Boss lived literally around the corner, saw Jones at the local gas stop, aksd him how his new house was. "They named the street after me."



Only if was 75 years old.
