As an erstwhile soccer star (a.k.a. someone who played from ages 4 to 18 in my hometown league), I know a few things about the beautiful game. For one, it’s the greatest sport on Earth—I say this without an iota of bias, obviously—since there really is nothing better than watching or playing in a fantastic matchup on the pitch. Two: As a former goalie, always make sure to cut down your angle to the ball. And three: Soccer fans are some of the most passionate, most devoted people alive.
