Been there, done that.

But rain? There's a wonderful invention called an umbrella, and I buy the biggest friggin' umbrella I can find! Yep, I'm that a-hole.

Nah, I'll stick to the Triangle area, thanks.

I buy all my umbrellas at a golf shop, but even a 72" cover doesn't stop it all. Used to wear a floor-length duster and even that didn't keep everything dry.

Snow?
I rememeber that.
Just finished the last HS pre-season tournament game.
First regular season JuCo game was Wed.

And that is why I hated living in Florida and will never live there again. Sports ARE seasonal and should stay that way.

A post titled "2010 Answer Key" could be...

- Somebody looking for the answer key, in which case he's probably going to get hammered hard by most posters here.

- Someone who has found an error in the answer key, which might be of interest to umpires taking the test.

- Someone reporting that someone else has posted the answer key somewhere, and that would likely generate a lively discussion.

But, instead we are accused of being cheaters with devious ulterior motives.

Let's see...how is it we treat a coach that questions our integrity?

Yep. And the HS season starts February 1!

I'd rather put up with our 6' of rain each year -- although I can do without the hurricanes.

And when does it end? And league and travel ball start when? And fall ball starts when? And how many Halloween, Thanksgiving and holiday tournaments are there aside from the occasional friendlies and fundraisers between October and February?

Sorry, Bubba, I did say "sport" not just HS ball. Of course, it could be worse. You could live in some backward state that thinks softball is a fall sport.

To each his own I guess.
I understand the sentiment, but it is what it is and I am where I am...

(and sports aside... happy to not being out shoveling snow)!

My shoveling is quite relaxing, minimal in effort yet provides great cardio and upper body workout.

BTW, Even if I were in FL or any other area with constant warm weather, I would still only work April to August, September at the latest.

Amen, Brother!

2 DII games, 4 JC games in the book last week.

I have worked 1 ASA tournament and UIC'd another in the past month.

I like sunshine and I like softball...If I feel like I need a break, I just don't provide availability for a weekend or two.

HS clinics are wrapping up, scrimmage games next week, real games the week after....
