Rain, turf fields, coaching Rutgers B, fraternizing with CHS A, encouraging WHRHS, and trying to be on my own time at least half the time. I really wanted to play with the B team when they were up against zone D in crazy wind. I resisted, but made bad jokes about how they should take injury subs for me on the goal line. Good thing nobody did.
It rained hard during that Showcase Game. I really wish I could have played. But to be honest, I would have been a little psyched out--the game was very fast, mistakes were very visible, everybody was athletic and skilled, and you could tell. It wasn't like the club season, where I had a team to back me up and pick me up. But it was fun as hell to watch. I had to root for my club teammates, but I was very impressed with the high schoolers. They're going to add some serious talent to college teams next year.
where the hell were you when we played our west windsor game
