Is Tim Albin going to dump the "Hey Diddle Diddle, ________ up the middle!" Offense?

Since this was a philisophical question as to the promptness of the MAC Offices, figured I'd include my own zen wisdom.

The thing that fascinates me, based on my own limited knowledge of conference scheduling, is how long it takes to generate the conference schedules every year. It would seem, given that the conference hasn't changed members in awhile, and the fact that the schedule in the last half of the season is very similar every year, that the MAC could release it's conference schedule in late July.

For someone with more knowledge tell me why I'm wrong or right on this?

It is sad that even people within the MAC care more about non-MAC sports and are open about it on social media.

Kind of shows a little why the league is the way it is ...

Well, JGuy specifically is a guy who should/could take the time to manage two accounts: One for his personal Cleveland sports fandom, and the other for the purpose of promoting #MACtion. But push him on it, and he gets all defensive.
