I admit that even in my adult prime I was likely no where good enough to play, but I could not wrap my head around playing sr. Mens hockey for a stipend/free sticks etc. I like to show up for work in the morning with all my teeth in my mouth.
Time and money mostly. Working full time and coaching AA Bantam takes up a lot of energy, amongst trying to have a social life.

I've joined non-contact leagues before and don't enjoy it mostly because there was no contact. I'm not asking to be able to run over guys, but as a defenseman, being able to lean on a guy without him crumbling like Ryan Kesler would be nice.

But this is getting off-topic, I think I've clearly shown where I stand on this issue. I'll probably e able to join a league in a couple years after I'm sick of seeing my kids getting checked from behind/boarded/elbowed consistently because none of them have a clue what those things are.
