I can remember my fisrt practice when the coach put me on defense and told me my only job was to keep the ball from going past me. Unfortunately he forgot to tell me \"no hands.\" The end result was 12 seaesons at goalie. But I did enjoy being the only one wearing a different jersey and it led me to understand and fall in love with hockey. That\'s where I met my wife, at a local semi-pro hockey game and I guess in a long, drawn out, roundabout way I can thank soccer for where I am today. (I know, its a stretch.)wingnutTue, 20 Jun 2006 08:50:50 -0000
