(#157)
When we merged with Utica for the 1989 season, I will never forget the look on Curly Farris‘ (long-time Gulf Coast head coach) face when he saw the “Utica” umpires walk through the gate to call our doubleheader in Raymond; Leon, Floyd, Terry, Donnell, etc.
We got all the calls and won two, just like George (McQuitter) always did at Utica… and just like Curly always did at Perk. 
Longtime Mississippi Delta CC head coach Terry Thompson who surpassed Coach Farris to become the all-time Mississippi JUCO win’s leader with 757 (7 state and 5 regional championships), commented on FB (with tongue-in-cheek and a sly smile on his face): “Wow! We never did that at Moorhead.” (said with the sincerity of Eddie Haskell to Mrs. Cleaver on Leave it to Beaver).
I replied: “I got ejected from both games of doubleheaders at Moorhead for years. But I never got ejected from any games we had a chance to win.” (Truth)
To which he replied: 
That’s a priceless exchange from times of long ago.
And I can testify under oath that. except for 1989, Hinds definitely didn’t have any of that home cooking stuff with the umpires.
