Footy

[gerbie]

Played footy again this morning. Was fun, until the game got harder. I had already tackled from behind once, losing a shoe and receiving a hole in my socks in the process, when I got a full body check. I was faster, the ball went past the defender and not for one second he looked at the ball, he only looked at me and made sure I couldn't get passed. This might be acceptable in Icehockey or American Football, in my sport it certainly isn't. So hurt on the grass I called him an idiot and he came back in a very threatening way. His eyes looked like he hadn't had any sleep and was still feeling th effect of some strange pills he had taken last night. Scary. I just turned around and walked of the pitch. Sunday morning leagues are recreational. They are supposed to be fun. This way, I'm not enjoying it, so I walked of. Never done anything like that before, hope it won't be necessary again. We did win 1-2 actually. Not that it matters.
