Get ReAL

A few weeks back I went to my first MLS game at Rio Tinto Stadium. ReAL Salt Lake scored within the first 2 minutes and didn't look back during their game with the LA Galaxy. I learned that soccer fans are nuts some in a good way and others not so much. I would love to see an NBA game where streamers are thrown on the court, it would make things a little more interesting. It was still fun and I would go to another game but I think I would wait until it is a little warmer and not raining. I guess I am a fair weather fan! The good news is the ReAL extended their home winning streak by beating the Galaxy 4-1. GOOOOOOOAL!

Feeling It

As of late I have been feeling quite old. Most of this feeling comes from the fact that my back has been sore since February. I have always said that my body was made up mostly of used parts but now I am thinking that is is more than mostly. Oh well, it could be worse at least I have these quotes to cheer me up.
