Caught in Possession

Tempus Fugit.

Time.

Flies.

This simple yet mystical phenomenon of existence keeps slapping me in the face, metaphorically speaking, in several different spheres of my life. But it takes place in, and in front of, all of us. This week offers just a few examples within this soccer subculture of ours:

*We have just one full weekend left in Daylight Savings Time;
*Fall regular-season play is winding down, and in some cases almost over, for Potomac-area youth leagues. WAGS senior league, for example, has just two full weekend ledgers left.
*Match Day Twelve (12!) of the 2008/2009 UEFA Champions League has now come and gone;
*Major League Soccer's final weekend of league play has already begun. Playoffs start in less than a week.

Autumn is upon us, and the cold, dark winter equinox beckons, and all of life buckles down accordingly.

My proverbial notebook is verily bursting open with interesting quotes/primary source material, story ideas, and other stuff from DC United, MLS, USL, US Men's National Team, DC local scene, and more.

Keep your proverbial heads up for content and if you somehow aren't already, for crying out loud, make sure you're subscribed to Potomac Soccer Wire's biweekly flashes.
