Remember, this is only my third season at this, I'm 41, and this isn't my only extracurricular activity. For me, 26 games is a lot. For someone who just has one job and just officiates on the side, that might not be a lot (I know guys who have done over 100 games in a season). For me, it feels like a lot, so whether that feels like a lot or a little to someone else isn't a big concern to me.

I'm just tired and haven't gotten to the point yet where I can blow off what coaches say.

Maybe I should just move in from the wing and be an umpire.
