Yeah...it's been raining for sixteen days straight and the temperature is hovering at 42 and the lines on the pitch are starting to float in the puddles, but the guys are pullin' their boots on and muttering that "we're too old to be doin' this" at the same time they're getting that rush of old boy adrenalin that shouts "Yes! I'm here and I've got my boots on. I may be old but in the words of Old Nick, "I AINT DEAD YET".

Edu's Goal and similar issues.
After yesterday afternoon's friendly out at West Sylvan, The Guys and a couple of our most beautiful fans who happen to be married to a couple of The Guys, repaired to Big Red's up at Sylvan for a beer or two, moments of reflection, and some free peanuts. A survey of all at the table concluded, enthusiastically, that Edu's goal was indeed a goal and a fine one. Two people hadn't seen the footage yet, but agreed just because they respect their teammates opinions. A further inquiry led to the conclusion that referees are a necessary evil. When all the shouting is over about this World Cup I expect that officiating will continue to be the number one topic that comes to mind down the years. How many matches already have been played with one team shorthanded? And how many players will be out in later rounds because of an early accumulation of yellow cards? A lot!
