We need more people with that kind of balls.
Ever since I got involved with this activity 25 years ago, I've watched Hoppy
relentlessly push to change the activity. And he does it so methodically and incrimentally. He proposes
the ridiculous and the slightly ridiculous at the same time...the slightly ridiculous passes, because
in comparison, it seems so much more rational. Then the next meeting, it's the same thing. Another
ridiculous idea mixed with a slightly less one...lather, rinse, repeat and in 2012, he has finally met
his goal of having woodwinds on the field. And keep in mind, he started proposing woodwinds and
electronics as far back as 1985. He has been and continues to be relentless.
We need more Directors to grow a pair and start opposing Hopkins
at these meetings. But I fear it's too late and he will get exactly what he wants.
