And I am sure a lot of those games are 2 Person, which means more running and pounding on your body.

I will admit we are in the dog days around this time. And sometimes mentally you are a little testy than at any other time of the year. But I would not say I am physically beat up. I feel just as good as I have ever physically.

I would suggest that if this is how you feel at this time of the year, you might want to cut back on a game or two during the season each week. Working just to be working is not go for you physically and mentally.

You're probably right. I've been thinking about that this month. The last three weeks including this one I've called on 6, 5, and 5 days during the week. I'm not going to call basketball next fall and do softball instead, so I won't start basketball until November most likely. I'll also probably block out an extra day a week and some Saturdays. I'm still pretty young so I didn't think it would be any big deal to work 5 nights a week, but it's pretty tough.

Physically I'm fine at this point. It's more mental/concentration than anything else.
