So I don't have much to say today...family is here and we went out looking for a new item for the lake house. Won't say what we were looking for, other than it required several people and opinions. No decision has been made yet.
I did play NCAA football yesterday for the first time. I beat BC, which made me so happy. I had Zach Frazer run it in twice and he threw a TD to Kashif Moore. Lindsey Witten had 4 sacks.
Also I was texting Willis and we were talking about how she was going to go have dinner with a Baltimore Oriole one weekend even though she is a huge Red Sox fan. I told her I'd have trouble eating with one of my teams foes. She didn't consider this player a foe at all. He said he's a great guy.
I ran into that girl who kicked Melissa Busque in the head and I turned my back to her. I couldn't look at her. Literally I could not look in her direction at all.
Meanwhile I told Willis that I was getting better at respecting my teams opponents.
Right after I texted her that the subject of St. Johns came up somehow and I absolutely trashed that school at the dinner table. To their credit they do play dirty...and I don't respect dirty players.
Now I understand how Europeans can get so emotional about their soccer.
What I find funny is how memorable this game was for the fans in the stands and how it was so unforgettable for the players. The subject came up in front of a couple of the players and they really didn't react as if the remembered it.
Meghan Nanfeldt and I did. As did the rest of my friends and the people who were running the husky sport field trip. The St. Johns game actually came up in their Husky Sport presentation. I asked one of them after the presentation if they explained that the kids shouldn't act like the St. Johns players during that game. They told me that they really did have to explain sportsmanship and they told the kids that it was not correct to play like St. Johns did.
Apparently the Husky Sport kids were also some of the loudest fans for UConn.
