If you are going to do rec/church leagues, you just have to expect crap on occasion.

And for that reason (and others, including poor rates of pay) I haven't done a single one of these games in about 7-8 years.

I actually just STARTED doing church leagues this yr and have had nothing but a positive experience. For me, so far so good. But, obviously, it's early and the jury may still be out......
