It could be that Jo is tired of writing about the matches, it could also be  
that she thinks we might be tired of hearing about them over and over  again.. 
 I for one am glad that through the course of seven books we didn't  have to 
listen to the play by play of 21 matches.  Even good things can be  over done.
