I'm trying to understand what 'fine' is, and how much of the failing 
cycle appears fine before it fails.  The previous 'fine' cycle must end 
with a "Disconnected" message.  The failing cycle might get as far as 
printing "Connected", before jumping to the "Disconnected" message.

It's just that when you say "it just prints 'Disconnected'", you're 
obviously truncating the entire trace to something manageable, but I 
can't distinguish these cases:

  * You're just showing the last message.
  * You're showing all messages in the final cycle, and they happen to
    include only one message.

These would be distinguishable by truncating just before the last 
message of the previous cycle.  The first case would then be indicated by:

   Disconnected
   Disconnected

...and the second case by:

   Disconnected
   Connected
   Disconnected

I suppose you mean that it's the first case by this:

********* I know that the line below is not being executed **********

                 fireConnectionEvent(ConnectionEvent.CONNECTED);
                 socket.setSoTimeout(3600000);  // one hour timeout
                 System.out.println("SportsWinClient: Connected");

...but I'm not clear on how you know this.

Perhaps you have a listener for the ConnectionEvent, and you can see 
that it doesn't execute.  But that could also mean that it or an earlier 
listener in the chain has thrown an unchecked exception.  
fireConnectionEvent doesn't protect itself against this.
