Should Goalkeeping Hurt This Good?
I'm hammering away at the keyboard feeling like (possibly even looking like) Doctor Zoidberg from Futurama. This weekend was our first hit up for the season, and let me tell you my body is feeling every little bit my age...29 less 100. Suffering from a fried noggin (yes, you fry in the Aussie sun, you don't get a fancy tan), some weeping grazes that would make the Grand Canyon look timid, and copping a tearing pain in my shoulder after a smashing one to one...I could honestly say I never felt so good!

PrintMental Mistake Can Cost Three Points...
Well I'm not sure that this will help anyone in the present day, because I think it needs to happen to you before you realize how to correct it. But I will share my blunder from this past weekend at my game, and how it cost us the win, or even a draw and resulted in a loss.
Profiles of the Legends: Dino Zoff
Dino Zoff was born in 1942 in Mariano del Fruili, which was a region in the far northeastern corner of the Italian peninsula. He was 1.82 meters in height or approximately 5' 11 1/2 inches. Most of his club side football was played at Napoli and Juventus FC. He would later become a coach at the club and National levels. He was one of rare players to become President of a professional side: S.S. Lazio of Rome. He is affectionately known as "San Dino" for his memorable performances at the 1982 World Cup in Spain, and is considered by many the best keeper ever to don the Azzurri #1 shirt. No doubt in the years to come, Gianluigi Buffon will challenge that opinion.

Living in Alaska makes me somewhat of an expert on long road trips. The shortest road trip I have been on with the state team in the last four years was four hours long, and the longest was about fifteen hours long. Although travel is an essential part of football, it is much harder at the youth level.
