Saturday afternoon
My kid's soccer game
I'm in the cargo shorts
Capri Sun in pocket three
Backup batteries in pocket five
You never know
Timex on
Folding chair set up six feet from any other parent
On purpose
By 1:04 a dad on the other team was screaming
Not encouraging
Screaming
At a referee who is legally not old enough to drive to this game
The kids are five
Half of them are running the wrong direction
One kid just did a cartwheel at midfield
And this man wants a replay review
His wife whispered something to him
He did not lower his voice
She moved her chair three feet to the left
I've seen that move before
My wife does it at every professional appointment I attend
It means "I don't know this person"
Rolex Ron was there too
Standing
Arms crossed
Sunglasses on
His kid touched the ball once
With his shin
Ron clapped like it was a goal
It was not a goal
The game ended
I don't know the score
Neither do the kids
The only person who tracked it was the screaming dad
He told everyone in the parking lot it was 4-3
No one asked
My daughter ran over
She said "dad I had so much fun"
Not "we won"
Not "I scored"
Just "I had fun"
Five years old and she already understands something half the parents on that sideline never will
I handed her the Capri Sun
Loaded the chairs
Timex still ticking

Eagles released On the Border on this day in 1974. This was their third studio album and the first with Don Felder on guitar. It marked a shift to a tougher rock sound and gave them their first big hit with “Best of My Love.” What’s your favorite song from On the Border? Did you or do you have this album? What format?#Eagles #ClassicRock

Update: Thanks to the Stocking Mill family…..that’s you guys…Claire has a lot of elbow room to work with as he navigates trying to get his stuff back.
I love you guys and this 98 year old Korean War Veteran is very grateful for the assistance you all provided.
Will keep you updated on his situation…..

Stocking Mill Coffee@smcroasters
Please share! Ends tonight and will be bringing him the money Friday to help him out! Any amount helps.

@thereal_SnS That's not what happened though. The cowards gladly took their money then kicked them out afterward.

Unpopular opinion: A private business has the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. That applies to the lesbian couple who declined to serve Governor Sarah Sanders just as much as it did to the Christian baker who refused a gay couple.
Rights don’t depend on which side of the political aisle you’re on.

BREAKING - It’s been revealed the Arkansas bakery that kicked out Gov. Huckabee Sanders because her “politics made them feel unsafe” is run by two butch lesbians, Jill McDonald and Wendy Shay. It would be a shame if people gave their business some attention.

"Hearts" (1981)
Here's a smooth and mellow song that fits right in with the early 80s sound. Would you agree?
Do you remember the name of this artist?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

The Little Rock restaurant that ordered @SarahHuckabee to leave has doubled down and is defending its decision. The Croissanterie serves not only croissants, but also bigory and intolerance.
