Last night a world cup qualifier game was on, Mexico vs USA and Kyle wanted to watch. Confession: soccer bores me to tears. I watch the World Cup, because hey, it's the World Cup but other than that.... No thank you.
That's not to say I hate soccer.
I dated two soccer players in high school and went to my fair share of games. I guess it's true of any sport - if it's your team, and people you know are playing, you enjoy it more. Plus the soccer field for high school games is not as huge as pro games, so it's easier to keep track of where the heck the ball is.
As a side note, my junior year of high school we had to write a metaphor paper in my English class. One of my said soccer playing boyfriends had broken up with me recently, so I wrote a paper comparing a soccer game to dating; how it was just a game to the players.
It was awesome.
Next time I go to my mom's I'll have to dig it out and then post it for your enjoyment.
