So many of have asked about my soccer game last night, and i thank you for this support. i thought I might be able to give back by writing about the situation and the experience. Please forgive typping errors, as I'm just banging away at the keys and not looking at screen... So here goes... First I had some issues going in to the match. but second is to explain where i was and what i was doing. I'll write about this second issue first and then...

Professional soccer in our country has the
following rubrics::::

MLS: Major League Soccer
Teams like the Columbus Crew and Colorado Rapids

USL: United Soccer Leagues
Three divisions (USL 1, USL2, and PDL) I work as an assistant in the USL2 and as a sometimes referee and most times assistant in the PDL--Pro Development League.

Last night, I was an assistant referee which means i run on the outside (touchline) of the field and raise my flag if the ball goes out of bounds, or if there is aperson too close to the goal when someone kicks her/ him the ball-- referees call this offside. I also have to keep these professional players' attitudes in check which sometimes means that I raise my voice.

I have three more "pro" games this year ( and by the way, i've been looking at the screen and editing), so why couldn't Mozart find his teacher??

'Cuz he was Haydn.
