FF:ACNC, take 3!

Well, let's give this another try...

WELCOME back, friends! G Paul Smith here, getting ready for the beginning of the 2016 football season as the down-under folks finish their last weekend of pre-season footy in prep for the start of the season on Thursday, March 24th....the NFL starts its fiscal year with the release of unwanted players and the start of the free agent signing period...the CFL starts putting its teams in place for pre-season games coming up in just a few weeks...colleges in the States go through its annual hypocrisy of pretending its athletes are students as it agonizes about whether they can let their players miss any more class for playoff games, or FORCE them to accept payments for their services and thereby damage their amateur status.

And soccer and rugby and the other related games probably still exist. Haven't checked recently.

So, hope you're willing to join me again, riding solo from now on (my business partner and beloved bride, Melissa, passed away in 2014), as we talk about the sport we all love, in all of its various forms.

        WELCOME HOME!    ~gps
