Into the finals

Long time, no post...  It's been an interesting past couple of weeks.  My outdoor team is a 1 seed going into the final.  We played hard for almost the entire game without any goals even with a ton of possession and only 2 shots on frame for our opponents.  We finally capitalized in the final 3 minutes with 2 goals to close out the game with a 2-0 victory.   Glad we got the W and are into the finals for the 1st time.  Great team and players = a real opportunity to close out in 1st place.

A couple of opportunities with indoor.  I've been playing on a team that has good talent but lacking in subs.  We are below .500 at this point, but a couple of subs and better shot conversion and we can contend.  Also, joined another indoor team of Arsenal supporters (http://trianglegooners.com/triangle-gooners-fc/ - if you are interested in following our progress).  It will be my first time playing at XL and our roster is pretty deep so I'm looking forward to getting started.

I will also be co-coaching my son's indoor team at XL as well.  I will be the "offense" coach (and also the offensive coach) - D'oh!  The other coach will focus on defense.  It's a great opportunity to build his team's dynamic.  Their outdoor season has been a challenge for several reasons but communication on the pitch is one of the major challenges.  The co-coach is on board with several of the issues challenging them in outdoor.  I really feel the indoor games will bolster the outdoor play.

Lastly, sublime goal from Arsenal - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04szyTEXlFA Only to be followed by a dis-heartening loss to Dortmund.  Looking forward to better EPL games and Gunners to the Cup!!
