Twiggy

Anna's team is playing indoor in a women's league this summer. I don't mind the girls playing adults...their skill level is definitely there and even better than most of the teams they play. However....they played a team last week that did NOT like losing to teenage girls. One woman was riding Anna all night long. (I guess she was mad that Anna scored 3 times!) She told Anna that she was going to break her twiggy little legs then a minute later she tried. She slide tackled Anna (going for her legs not the ball) and flipped her so that she landed flat on her back. She knew it was a foul so started walking nonchalantly back to the box even before the ref threw the blue card. Anna jumped up....ripped off her headband and took off after the girl. You know it's serious when Anna rips off the headband...hee hee! Not sure what she thought she was going to do when she caught up with the woman...she would have definitely eaten Anna for lunch! Anna told the coach that she needed to come out of the game to cool off. Good call Anna! After the game this man and his wife came up to Anna. They had been watching the game and told Anna what a good player she was and how that grown lady should have known better then to act the way she did. It's definitely not worth ending her soccer career, for a dumb indoor league with a bunch of old has beens.
