Dress Rehearsal ...

It's Their Show, We're Just There To Blow The Whistle ...

Unintended Consequence For Me ...

As do I. Back when we were working free scrimmages (that many didn't want to work), I could work as many as I thought I needed to get ready for the season. Since we started getting paid, everybody...

Not Me ...

Might be a poster from any of the little Connecticut corners, not just my little corner. Might be a poster that only posts inane rules arguments, or it might be a poster that only posts rambling...
