I’ve seen some funny team names, and like to think a couple of my teams have unique names (Lunachicks and Lil’ Sheetz – sponsored by Sheetz of course). But I stumbled across this athletic club today and laughed out loud.

Better Than “Swarm-Ball”
Overheard today – I laughed out loud:
4 year old soccer is just like a cat chasing a laser pointer
How true is that?
Tales From The Lunachick Fringe V
We played our last fall season match against a tough division opponent that was undefeated, hoping to reverse a recent slide and come away with a win. Well, didn’t work out that way by any stretch, but there were a couple funny moments I figured I’d share.
Tales From The Lunachick Fringe IV
Sometimes the excitement at a youth soccer match happens afterward!
A Summer of Soccer In Pictures
Since I’m slack and haven’t been posting these as I’ve taken them, here’s a few funny soccer photos I took this summer…
Funny Soccer Tweets
I’ve been using social networking sites more and more, and finding some rather funny stuff. I use a great Twitter client called TweetDeck, which allows you to search the public timeline for certain keywords so you can monitor tweets with certain words. Very cool. Well, I had to share a rather funny tweet that scrolled [...]
Tales From The Lunachick Fringe III
My U11 Girls team had one last hurrah at the NC State Games last weekend, and you just knew there would be a few Tales From The Lunachick Fringe!
The NC State Games are a huge annual amatuer sporting event styled after the Olympics, including opening ceremonies. The youth soccer tournament is only one of dozens of events, but attracts teams from across the state. So we were excited to be going as our last event together as a U11 team. The girls did well, reaching the bronze medal match, but that’s not what this post is about! It’s about the fun that ensues when the Lunachicks play soccer!
Comical Youth Soccer
One of my favorite quirky comics is Rhymes With Orange, and this recent strip about ‘Youth Soccer From Above’ is all too funny (and true)
Tales From The Lunachick Fringe II
It’s so nice that the drought seems to be over or at least improving. We’ve had a lot of rain this season, compared to almost none last Fall. But it sure would be nice if it rained earlier in the week. Lately it seems like it is always raining Thursday, Friday, and Saturday – wreaking havoc on the match schedules of leagues across North Carolina. The weather also made for some funny moments at our recent match.
The Ref’s Cell Phone
I would never advocate heckling a referee, but this is funny:
NFHS game a couple of years ago. Game going well, decent crowd, nothing really unusual. Crowd is relatively loud, but it’s just all background noise. Until, all of a sudden, a hush falls over the stadium and you hear this one loud voice from the [...]
How To Give Your Coach Heart Failure
As many of you know, late October is a busy time for soccer teams. Seasons are winding down, team are jostling for position in the standings, and getting ready for end of season tournaments, etc. Coaches are working their teams hard trying to get them hitting on all cylinders. Needless to say, the coaches can [...]
Applying For Jobs From A Virtual World
BlogFC posted this earlier and I had to pass it on. It’s outstanding. One of the Premiership teams, Middlesbrough (Boro), was recruiting a new manager, so someone with extensive, er, virtual experience decided to apply for the job. His years of team management experience on Football Manager 2005 was impressive as was his practical experience [...]
A Little Headline Humor
The Big Lead has the best headline for a World Cup photo I’ve seen yet. Priceless. I still can’t get over France passing out when they were 1v1 with the Swiss keeper. Ouch.
