Can you tell me what old term is the same as "trail mentality?" I'm curious about it. I always like to really learn about things like this (I had to throw that in so you would know my question is genuine).
Tom, I honestly don't have a clue whatinthehell "trail mentality" is. I'm not even sure that I really want to know, to be quite honest. Is it any different from "center mentality" or "lead mentality"? Is this the face of someone who cares?

I can't keep track of all of 'em anymore. Too many mad scientists- too few me's.

Whatever it is though, I'd bet Lark's left one that it ain't really a new concept at all. Also note that I ain't putting it down either- whatever the hell it is.

"I'm bilingual. I speak 2 languages- Murican and SEC."
I understand you. FWIW, refTN (like many others) is a young official so he speaks the language he was taught, if you know what I mean. Also, if someone is going to give me games at $1000 + a pop, I'm going to talk their language. I like to know the new, the old and the in-between just so I know. However, those collared shirts and flat-front pants were just brutal! That is some "old" I don't miss at all!
