I would discount injuries which are a whole different factor. I think other players and coaches figure out what the young player can and cannot do. Where their strengths and weaknesses are.

In baseball an example of such a player is Jeff Francoeur of the Braves. He had a great first two seasons then his production dropped dramatically in his third year never to recover. They watch films on players and change how they approach them. It goes for all sports. They start to take away what makes a player successful and that player has to adjust. They force them to do something else, to change their timing and the defensive looks they get. Some players can’t adjust, their talent only goes so far.

Yea, DelDot sent me a fine notice for running an exit toll on Del Rt1. The toll was 50 cents and the scanner didn’t pick up my transponder even though it picked up my transponder entering the road in Dover. I sent them back a polite letter with a copy of my EZPass report and two quarters. They must of been ok with it. I didn’t hear back from them.

I live in Southeast PA, Chester County. I’ve lived here for decades. I really like where I live, that’s a major reason why I haven’t moved.

I live in the exburbs. It’s a rural area but not far from urban areas. There are dairy farms and Amish farms near me but I’m an hour from Philly and Baltimore. I’m two hours from ocean beaches and the mountains and a half hour from the upper Chesapeake Bay.

Crime in the immediate area is very low. Housing costs have gotten expensive because local communities and governments don’t want any more big housing developments unless they are in towns. The towns are nice but not a lot to do if you’re looking for nightlife.
