During the late 70s there was a bit of a soccer craze here in the US ... Pele and Beckenbauer playing for US Teams and all. I believe the Philly soccer team was called the Fury, and I remember the name of the Chicago Sting as well. I subscribed to a soccer magazine and watched as much soccer on television as possible. I was pretty into it.

Then later on my friends' kids were playing soccer and I was pressed into service as their rent-a-mom as their dad was quite ill and could no longer attend their games, so I was keeping the girls' routines as normal as possible, and I refreshed some of the old info.

I get the joke. Both parts. It's a good one.
