Same here. In all my 32 years, I've never been anxious for the season to end. Fortunately, my profession is beginning to crank up by then, so there's not much time to sulk about it. Back in my...

I'm on the other side of that coin. I truly enjoy helping the newer officials by passing on what I've been taught over the last 30+ years. I had a mentor take me under his wing, now it's my turn,...
