The only beast that's different is football. With one game a week, all Fridays, it's fun going out on Mondays and Thursdays and working subvarsity with the crew.

Rich:

You missed my point. I agree with you. But there are some of us that work all three levels (FR, JV, and VAR) during the course of the season, and when you get those three hour FR or JV games, you really earn your game fee.
