Very few people come and watch my games anyway. Doesn't change how I do my job.

Very true. If everything goes right, you truly can go unnoticed. I had a game where the third base coach was a friend of mine since he was 10 years old and I was 24---almost 30 years! He first noticed it was me when he told me "Nice game" at the end of the game. It was like, "Nice game; HOLY SH!T!"

I had a couple of games where they didn't notice.... Even forgot to mail me the check!
