Sometimes I poach people a bit about some youth experiences of mine. One of those is that I not only played against kids that went on to have a professional career in football, but even played with one on the same team. That is correct though, although I like to make the story sometimes a bit more interesting than it really is, but that is what stories are for, right?
But it isn’t really a story I can pass on to my kids. My kids won’t tell years from now that their dad was on the same team with this player that had a career in professional football.
