when it comes to the goalkeepers. I always feel so bad for the loser.
DS was a HS senior when his team made the playoffs. Their game was delayed because the teams before them went into a shootout.
I didn't know any of these kids and I was a nervous mess.
In one of the most beautiful sports scenes I ever witnessed, when the game ended, the losing goalie just collapsed to the ground in despair. His coach ran to him and gathered him in his arms. The entire team circled around the goalie and coach, giving their support. 
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
