What do you do to cope with the offseason?

I use a 6 step process although it's still not the same. They still havn't told me if I have to coach cross country this year, so i've spent most of my time crying that I'll miss a lot of games.

1. Watch the Whote Sox
2. Go golfing
3. Stress myself out about teaching next year/design my lesson plans
4. Read Buckeyeplanet/chicago bears message boards.
5. Keep up to date on the NBA Draft
6. Do some summer camp coaching

So, I couldn't take it anymore. Almost 5 months with no football is almost too much for anyone to take. Tonight, I went to a semi-pro arena football game. Tri-City Fever vs Billings Outlaws. The Outlaws bitch slapped Tri-City. Yet, I left feeling empty and disappointed. It broght me no satisfaction. Yesterday, I went and watched the Rocky Mountain College football team practice. I feel like an alcoholic who has turned to drinking Nyquil. I wonder if I have a problem. I just keep watching the 2003 NC DVD over and over agian. I find myself thinking about watching football. I think a lot about when I can watch football again. I plan my schedule around watching football, and when the odd opportunity presents itself to watch LIVE football, like tonight, I will take it. It seems that the more I watch, the more I need to watch to be satisfied. Now, tonight, I resort to this. Its not even real football!. My wife is out of town, and here I am running around town trying to score some football! I was doing OK until my basketball ran out, and I had to stop doing baseball because it lasted too long and it made me sick.

Last week we went to visit our folks for Fathers day and take the dads to lunch. Well, I asked my Pops to rip all of his OSU DVD's for me, then that night, while everyone was asleep, I went downstairs and sneaked the 06' Fiesta bowl. I even thought about "borrowing" The Game 06'. It is getting out of control and I don't know what to do anymore.

I kind of feel like this board is a support group. What do you guys and Gals do?

get a life, loser :tibor:

Option 1: Watch the Reds, until they're mathematically eliminated in June, then watch the Twins, until they're eliminated in the first round of the playoffs, then watch the Red Sox.

Option 2: Go to the basement and play foosball, pinball or pool, or get online and 'window shop' for another pinball machine to put in the basement, despite the fact that I don't have $4000 for either of the two I really want right now, and bucks4me will get PO'ed if I spend anymore money on crap we don't need.

Option 3: Watch DVD recordings of previous games.
