"Professional managers, coaches, and players have a right to question an umpire's decision if they do it in a professional manner. When they become personal, profane, or violent, they have crossed the line and must be dealt with accordingly"
- Jim Evans
About this Quote
This quote by Jim Evans emphasizes the value of expert conduct when questioning an umpire's choice. It is acceptable for professional managers, coaches, and gamers to question an umpire's choice, as long as it is done in a respectful and expert way. However, when the questioning becomes individual, profane, or violent, it is no longer appropriate and must be handled appropriately. This quote works as a reminder that while it is very important to hold umpires liable for their decisions, it needs to be done in a considerate and professional way. It is important to remember that umpires are human and can make errors, and that it is not proper to take out frustrations on them in a less than professional way.

"We worked very hard to make the lyrics suit the music. I can't, like Elton John, for example, compose by lyrics. Elton has a great talent for that. Whatever you give him, including your questions, he composes in half an hour and makes a great song out of it"
