I'm an American, so I don't know a lot about soccer. I've already admitted to dropping out of the American Youth Soccer Association as soon as I was introduced to the perplexing Offside Rule. So maybe someone could explain to me the role of a Major League Soccer Manager. In baseball, the manager is the head coach, in charge of every aspect of the game. In soccer, does the manager need to have short stubby forearms, screen calls and do a lot of reading?

The New York Blazes are one of the country's greatest teams. Last year, they took home the coveted MLS Cup 1st place certificate for the third straight season!

I was stunned this morning to discover that Gina had left Diner, and was home now making personal calls... But then I saw the menus on the counter and realized that -- hooray -- I was wrong.

Okay, but be prepared -- things like registering for school, transferring credits, cashing checks and hiding from the mob are going to be a real hassle.

And we all thought Gina grew up Italian, what, with the Italian ice and gruesome mob-related killings. And the last name Baroni. How racist of us not to realize she was really Iberian.

You know what else is forgettable? The offside rule. And if we are going to be attending the New York Blazes' match against the Santa Royale Soccer Team in just two days, we all need to study up. The offside law is the most confusing rule in soccer and drives many a young child away from the sport. It did me. I spent much of my adult life trying to figure out why offside was called against me when I was ten, and after years of study, I finally got it.

While Gina continues to speculate over and over about her relationship with dear sweet Bobby, let's take a moment and prepare ourselves:
