The funny thing was, the running blog had no comments at the half, and I was wondering if anyone was following along. Course, after my gaffe, a bunch chimed in, so I joked to Luis that I was just trying to make sure people were paying attention and get them to comment. <BR/>Seriously, though, we're at games, but sometimes, I feel I get a better sense of certain plays at home. The press box shares a television, but we can't hear the announcers or rewind if we want to see certain plays.A.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03617669285297119500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-4215633034054687222008-07-17T08:14:00.000-07:002008-07-17T08:14:00.000-07:00It's easy to miss things sometimes that seem obvio...It's easy to miss things sometimes that seem obvious. I covered a game once, a pretty important game, and there was a foul inside the penalty area late in the game. A PK was called, which I got, but there was a red card given as well, which I didn't. I was so busy writing that the one team had won on the PK and describing the significance of the win that I barely even noticed that the other team had 10 men and didn't realize it until well after I'd filed my stories. I'm guessing readers thought "why no mention of the red card?"L.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03932409909043501781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-41141160948159251362008-07-16T23:50:00.000-07:002008-07-16T23:50:00.000-07:00awful game,awful refs, as a Chivas USA fan, i feel...awful game,awful refs, as a Chivas USA fan, i feel ashamed on how we played tonight, besides the goal by Razov.
