In my time in ball, I almost always wore my catchers/batters helmet out on the field during pregame activity. I also tried to place myself in a position where my back wasn't turned to any balls that where being batted or thrown. It was a good habit I got into as a youngster and still apply to this day. If made to wear a helmet on the field, I figure I have only two choices. Comply or quit. What's your call going to be?

I don't recall anybody making fun of Jon Olerud.
