On the wane....

So my third season of football is almost over, I have one more junior high game on Monday afternoon and then I'm done for the year.

I'm beat. I know most of you would think that 26 games in a year is nothing, but it's more than twice as many as I've ever done in a season, and I'm just worn down and have to re-assess if I want to do this again.

I've gotten a ton of reps this year, and that's great. I've learned a lot (mostly by getting stuff wrong or nearly getting it wrong). This year has been a terrific learning experience.

Maybe it's just the nightmare from last night, but I'm really sick of coaches and I don't know if I have the temperament to deal with them at higher levels if I eventually move up.

Does anybody else get like this? Am I just cranky because it's the end of the season and I'll be fine after some time off?
