I am not saying he did get their without work. And I am sure that his education and being around his father helped him in ways it would not help others. But when you are giving more than one jobs in multiple sports to guys that dad was a former professional official, that just wreaks of nepotism. And that is part of the problem, because it does not seem like the best are getting hired in many cases. Again, all I am wondering is why can the MLB have a better staff and why they cannot get rid of a guy or two. We all know guys that just do some goofy stuff and those guys never get fired. I know that this is in large part because of the union contract, but MLB should have some power to get better guys into place. It is embarrassing to have guys that are so big that could not get hired to work HS games and screw up, but they keep their jobs. A college guy does not make weight and they get rid of them without much fanfare.
