Why are soccer fields 20degrees colder than anywhere else

Tournament action has started in the life of a soccer family. I have to admit the life has changed quite abit now that we have no children playing in the tournaments and we don't have weekend travel games...it's really nice! But I do have to admit at times I miss the rat race of the life style, sometimes. But when the weekends are like the past weekend, I don't miss it at all! Saturday was sorta warm, but the wind was horrendous! I parked the car near two fields so I could watch 2 games and I hypernated out of the wind in the car for the most part of the game. Sunday however was freezing cold and the temp. dropped on a regular basis throughout the day. So Sunday I joined the refs in their tent which thankfully had a kerosene heater!! Oh and they had lots of chocolate in their tent!!! Who can ask for more on a falling temp. day...kerosene heater and chocolate!!! Oh I would have like to have some hot chocolate or Starbucks!!! Sometimes we just can't be pleased! At least 3 more tickets within 2 months..yeah! And the best thing is they are all local so no big travel for them. I do miss the friends at the tournaments in Georgia, it was like an extended family. At these tournaments we don't know anyone since we've been gone for so many years. On a positive side it's a chance to meet new people and make new friends..I hope. I am keeping my fingers crossed that we get to go see some MLS games this season!!! And hopefully will get to see our WUSA teams play!!! Yeah!!! Womens soccer is back!!!! Go Ladies!!! However, our fav. team Freedom has the ultimate goalie Brianna back with them..we've watched her since the beginning...sorry girl, I think you might need to seriously think of retirement. It pains me to see you in the condition you're in right now...it may be too late to go out on a high note..but you're always #1 in our house!!!
