They don't. All of the NCAA meetings for next year will begin in the winter. (Usually January, before the start of the new season.)

That's because they don't speak French in Louisiana. Creole is NOT French!

Sunday I encountered a first base coach who had a weird accent...knew he wasn't from around here, but it wasn't clear...turns out he grew up in Houma, and even though he's been away a long time, he still has a good portion of what my some of my Okie friends call "French Arcadian," especially on certain words...like "hey bleuuu she pullerfut."

Oh, No!!! I thought former Governor Moonbeam was restricted to CA and we don't let Feinstein past DC. Bonzo is dead, so that only leaves the Terminator!

Even when they do, you still can't understand without practice. Many, many years ago when DD was playing for a travel team out of Mandeville LA, we ended up at the ASA Regionals in OKC along with the Hurricanes from Lafayette. A coach from Tennessee came to get me to translate for him. :cool:
