I do a plate conference, but all we basically do there is just exchange lineups...

I have a meeting, more for formality of exchanging lineups and to make sure we were still on the same page.

Last night we asked if Home coach wanted to cover the ground rules again, and if we were doing the National Anthem (again). It was more to lighten the mood, which it did...until I called "play."

Generally we have a meeting just to compliment one another on all the excellent calls and superior game management, as well as any inspired or brilliant coaching moves from the first game. But usually it's just the umpiring that truly stands out.

Not only very humorous, but sadly true as well!
