In DC, the public school system only got a girls' soccer league two years ago. My particular school, however, has had a girls' soccer program for quite a while now. So to keep things a little more competitive, my school's JV team has been playing in the city league against the other newly-formed varsities (none of the other schools have JV teams). Our varsity plays a series of scrimmages against independent schools. So that means that us JV folk get to play for the city title. Unfortunately, we lost [Frown] , but the Washington Post had an article on our game and the boys' game, with a prominent picture of my butt. [Big Grin] Here's the link to the article (the part about our game is at the bottom) and to the larger version of the picture (I'm the keeper).

No offense, but I don't feel like filling out WP forms to get a pic of you playing, and showing off your bootie.

However, I will agree that that is very cool that you got in there. Rock on, dude.

I'm not offended. [Smile] I didn't realize that there were forms to fill out. I guess I probably filled them out a while ago and forgot about them.

Here you can see the picture without going through the Washington Post forms.

that second link is denied because it has been deemed pornography.

then again, so are OSC's review columns. go figure.

from a photographer's point of view, it is a good shot, though. and big kudos on getting in the washington post. where i come from (middle of nowhere), that's a pretty big deal.

Congratulations on the article!

Well, she warned you that it was a picture of her butt!

Sheesh . . . it gets harder and harder for naked soccer leagues to get any respect!

Oh, and, congrats!

I got to the picture in the first one without forms. Did you make them both the same? Just Curious.

I recalled this thread when I was reading the newspaper and they had an ad for the Nutcracker that said "Great seats still available!". If I knew ballet terms I could tell you how the guy was situated.

Both pictures (the one in the first post and the one labeled "here" in a subsequent post) are the same picture, but different web addresses.

Miro, that's what she meant (I think) by "both".

Nice save! That looks like it was an agressive game. (Note: I only looked at the pic; am too lazy to read article or type full sent...

Kat, you and Miro didn't meet at Endercon? She was a trivia finalist(on the left, with the hat). [Smile]
