We went to see the Wizards (KC) play as my brother in laws brother in law (yes, that reads correct) played for them. Man what a dull ass game. I was waiting for it to be over and had we not promised the kids they could run the field when the game was over I would have left in the first half. Maybe the difference is the location? East coast, especially Long Island was big soccer country but here? You might as well be wearing a dress and licking lollipops.
