soccer report

We defeated our division patsy, GPS (they've won only five times in the last 4 eight-game sessions; i suspect that our division is also the lowest in Off The Wall's league), 5-3, after we'd had a shutout for almost ¾ of the game. Overall, we played a good game... a few defensive lapses, but GPS couldn't take advantage of them, so we ended up OK. Plus, i saved a shot with my mouth (no harm done). I'm not thrilled with the victory, but i guess it beats losing.

yes, i remember about defense now. I was put in as wing to score back in them days.. I was terrified of being kicked in the shins and always had on shinguards. But one day in the locker room when I had my shinguards off, someone who knew I was afraid of being kicked in the shins kicked me there as a joke, and to this day I have a dent in my left shin! I guess I should be glad it didn't break my leg.

My better sports were basketball and volleyball; also ran the 400 m dash and the running long jump. I wasn't so hot at softball, but played. Kudos to you for staying fit enough to play sports now. I must say, the best athletes on our team always played goalie for some reason, if I remember right. I remember two very awesome goalies from my old teams, even if the rest of our team sucked..
