Hi,

Let's enjoy the weather and air.

====================
Something to share that I learned hard way:

Never slow down or change your direction when you were dashing to the goal with ball.

I broke my collar bone 18 years ago when I decided to slow down a little.  Aftermath concluded that my leg got tangled with the chaser.  He had no time to react.

One year ago, I was chasing Edu.  Right when I was trying to pass him from side, he steered to that direction.  We both fell, he was in so much pain I thought his legs were broken.  Luckily, he recovered after just one week.  Thanks to other player pointing out what happened so I did not take the full blame.

From that time, I told myself: even the guy will score, I will not foul from behind.

Yesterday, I fouled Berk from behind.  When I was fast joining the crowd, he turned and dashed away.  I adjusted my step trying to avoid tangle with his legs, still his heel touched calf of my right leg.  He was safe, not fall.  I was hesitate to admit that I fouled him because I tried pretty hard to avoid it.  Sorry about it, Berk.

==========
Here also say sorry to Bob, never complained about my aggressive move.

Jeff, I was wondering why you asked whether I am OK after we collide, until later after game, my leg can barely move.

==========

Hope to see you guys on the field, and I promise will be more careful.

Tiger
