practice started two weeks ago for baseball and soccer. mw is one of four baseball coaches. this new league we're in is pretty serious. cw hasn't missed a beat switching to the pitching machine. seeing him on the baseball field, with mw milling around in cleats, is at the top of my "favorites" list. cw is long and thin. looks great in sliding pants and a ball cap. he can catch anything the other boys, and most of the coaches, can throw at him. he is finally growing into his obscenely long legs. lengthening his stride and kicking up his heels. and the only butt that looks cuter in baseball pants than cw's is his dad's.
i have very little love in my heart for the game of soccer. but i do love watching cw play ball. and so, by default, i am beginning to love soccer. just a little. it's growing on me. aw loves it. be loves it. gw kicks around a ball at practice with surprising coordination. little by little it is weaseling its way into my heart.

Even though you hate the sport i love. i am so very glad you don't have the nerdy kid on the field that has his shin guards on the outside of the socks. that is just wrong and i judge those children, harshly.
