After a full week-end which started with excitement and some Willie Nelson (“On the Road again”), it ended arriving home on Monday morning at 2am with work week starting just a couple of hours later. Appropriately, Bob Seger’s “Turn the page” came on the radio with 90 minutes remaining in the drive.
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
the way they always do
When you’re ridin’ sixteen hours
and there’s nothin’ much to do
And you don’t feel much like ridin’,
you just wish the trip was through

Joe, I know this is a little late, but I just read your blog on the 2009 Manchester Cup. Brock Duckworth did not play in the Manchester Cup for UNCW against Clemson. He was sick and did not make the trip. Brock is playing in goal for the Carolina Dynamo PDL team this summer and has a record of 7-2-1. I just wanted to let you know.

Joe, the mention of Brock Duckworth playing for UNCW against Clemson was in your collegesoccernews article. Brock did not play in that game.
