Victory and Irony

We won today, as expected. I did not get yelled at undeservingly, though I did get spoken to loudly (there is a big difference between speaking loudly and yelling). But beyond getting us ready for the upcoming game, this conflict had great humor to it as well.

Today we played the same team as we did for our season opener (also their season opener). We beat them then too, even with one starter gone and two kicked out for excessive foulage. But the big thing is this. In both their first and their last game, they played us. And both games ended with a last-second shot by our goalie! There was much laughter that we tried to disguise as cheering. It wasn't laughter at pathetic-ness, but laughter at the irony. Our goalie won state in the shot put and the discus, so we all know she can throw. It wasn't pathetic that they couldn't stop her.
