Worked football for 41 years, then retired for 4, now back in the saddle with two games under the belt. Having a great time. Its a cool thing we do, even if the average Joe doesn't understand and respect it. We keep on, because the game needs someone to maintain its integrity and dignity. But we also do it for the camaraderie, and the sheer enjoyment of it.
At least I do. I hope you do, too.
