So, I'm playing soccer at lunch today with a bunch of coworkers. They occasionally go and play a friendly game. Sounded good to me, bunch of old folks, a no slide tackling rule (sensible in terms of injuries...but damnit, that's my bread and butter!).
I chatted with a coworker who has played with them before, but isn't playing today. I'm scared now.
Despite the no slide tackle rule, he's personally witnessed at least 6 injuries (one of them his own)! Gah, I haven't played any soccer for, oh, 6 years, and that was a college recreation class. I'm out of shape and highly unskilled. I fear for my limbs.
