This board and others go thru cycles.

When the season ends, we go strong for about a month or so.

When the playoffs are over, many concentrate on other sports, like I do with baseball.

When the spring sports are over, then for many the basketball picks up with summer camps and leagues.

This place will slow to a nearly a halt when the fall sports like Football and Soccer.

Of course there will be those philosophy discussions and procedural discussions that make this place interesting. But that is not going to involve many serious discussions until maybe around October, when it seems most of the country begins to have their Official's Association meetings.

Then when the season starts and ends, we go thru that all over again.

This is just the natural order of things around here and with the other sports. The serious discussions do not really happen in the off season.

So until then we will talk about socks, shoes and camps until our fingers bleed. Plays and situations are generally more common in season or right before the season.

Peace
