Soccer Rules My Spare Time

This USWNT Match this/Saturday afternoon, by the way, is the fourth consecutive Saturday I will spend at Allianz Field.  The first three Saturdays were for United FC for Major League Soccer Games, and you can add a Wednesday Match I saw the Loons in for the U. S. Open Cup.  That's a lot of Games to see.  If you love it it doesn't feel like a chore, but I have to admit it's starting to get to me a bit.  I don't see how season ticket holders for baseball, basketball and hockey teams do it.

With work being such a bear these days, weekends are my only me time.  There are things I want to do, such as go through my stuff.  But (and sure, this might be just an excuse), when I have somewhere I have to go, my entire day revolves around that, to the point where anything substantial I need to do I rarely do.  What I do instead is, well, take a nap ... which I will do after I blog post this.  I might have time to juice a lemon for the cocktail I want to have after I come home, but that's all I'm doing besides the Match.

I still love soccer, and I still love MNUFC.  I might even go to a MNUFC2 Match or two now that I went to my first one a couple weeks ago.  But doing all this is a commitment, and I didn't think I would be such a soccer rube -- especially since I don't understand many and flat out don't like a few of their rules.  And in the meantime, it takes up a lot of my free time.  Oh, well.
