Re: [soccer_atlanta] two days 'til soccer.


William,
I got called into work this evening at the hospital.
I have to be there at 3:00AM. Therefore i wont be able
to play Sunday. I traveled for seven months through
Europe, eastern Europe and turkey so I would love to
get e-mails from you on the road. Pass my name along
to the others, I'm still interested in playing.

BE SAFE, and have a great trip!

JOE

Pageantry--absolutely! It had to do with the nearly constant changing of clothes by at least half of the participants during the match. I think the fashion...
