What's on your mind?

Sounds like a great guy.
Funny, like most of us, he became involved in girls softball when he didn't say no when someone asked him for help.
I guess some call if Daddy Ball, and it is the reason most girls are able to start playing as kids.
Deserve's got nothin' to do with it.

It sounds like Mr. Simmons had a good understanding of what sports and life is all about and sports place in helping kids to succeed. Condolences to his family and the Tulsa Eagles organization from the O.C. LadyCats softball club.

We were able to play Mr Simmons a few times over the years and he had a great attitude with his players. Good coach on the field and I am sure friends with many on and off the field.
Prayers to his family and Tulsa Eagles.
