This morning I happened to run into his dad at a store (he is the manager there). I told him I had three games with Kyle this coming Saturday morning. He said he'd make sure Kyle got a good night's sleep Friday night. When I asked why that was important, he replied, "If he's gonna carry you for three games, he'd better be rested".

Cold but true, I can't wait for my two sons become old enough to officiate so they can carry the "old man." I have already retired two partners because of injuries to their backs.
