DeafDigest - 04 November 2021

DeafDigest Mid-Week edition - November 4, 2021 -- deaf in top sports management We read of people that work in sports management - baseball, basketball, football, hockey and soccer. As far as DeafDigest editor knows, we've had two deaf individuals. One is Michael Fischer, a Gallaudet graduate who works for Los Angeles Sparks in women's pro basketball as Vice President, Player Personnel. The other one was Ben Wade who pitched in the majors and then after he retired, became Director of Scouting Operations for many years with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Any others in the future years? Fischer knows ASL. Wade does not.   -- deaf people signing while sleeping Do deaf people sign while they sleep? Many of them do, according to their spouses or partners or their children. Do neurologists help stop signing? Why would they?   -- dangers of written notes Many deaf people use notes to communicate with the hearing - and it may be a danger! Hearing people may read such notes and reveal private and confidential information! DeafDigest editor recently had a hearing person grab his pocket notebook. It was then grabbed back by a very angry DeafDigest editor.   Deaf jobs - latest update http://deafdigest.com/category/jobs/ 10/31/21 Blue and Gold editions & sub options at: http://deafdigest.com/newsletters/
