Well, it's soccer season again! I am very excited about the new season starting, I can't really explain it. Some people think I am crazy for still playing soccer despite the numerous injuries I have had, and that I am still willing to throw myself on the ground repeatedly to keep the ball from going in the goal. But there is something about the game that makes me happy. When I am on the field, I am a different person. I am not thinking about work, or worrying about bills, I am playing soccer, and that is a great feeling.
The season started last Thursday night with quite a thrashing. I chalk it up to our team getting used to playing together again, and a terrible referee. But the highlight of the season so far was the Southwestern University Alumni game, which pitted the Alums versus the current players. We had a pretty decent squad and ended up winning the game 3-2. I was just excited that I didn't get scored on in 45 minutes of play. It was fun to see old teammates and meet some of the guys that played before me. It was a fun afternoon. The season runs through the middle of May, so I will get to play in quite a few games, and that makes me happy.
