New Year's Resolutions for Force Dad

I was delighted when my daughter named me "Most Improved Soccer Parent of 2011" -- mainly for not talking about the game at all after a game. Inspired, I have created some resolutions so I, too, can go to the "next level."

New Year's Resolutions for Force Soccer Dad:
1) I will commit the difference between the "ITC" park in Novi and Independence Park in Canton to memory. Or is it "ITC" in Canton and Independence Park in Novi? For that matter, I will learn the difference between Canton and Novi.
2) Having gotten over the frustration of using a whole can of "Goo Off" to get my Force sticker off the back of my old Ford Flex I will get a new Force sticker to go on my new Ford Flex. This is critical: other parents look for stickers ("oh, follow them!" or "we are at the right field!") so I can lead other parents astray coming out of an unfamiliar parking lot.
3) When discussing the connection between 12 year old travel soccer in southeast Michigan and the Olympics I will do so without (visible) irony.
4) When driving the Flex forty miles there and back to my daughter's soccer games I will use only "Klean Canteens" for water and not plastic water bottles -- therein limiting my carbon footprint.
5) I will stop referring to the Hawks as Wolves even though Hawks are clearly gendered male in every bit of iconography going back to the ancient Egyptians.

6) I will stop clutching my head in pain whenever Lauren heads the ball.
7) Should the Force Golf Invitational take place again in 2012 I will bring 3 ringers, and 1 disaster -- not the other way round.
8) I will not think at all on "match" or "tournament" days....I will just follow Alice's instructions to the letter.
9) I will make more productive use of my time (grading exams, doing taxes, etc.) while waiting for Coach Cookie to finish his postgame talk.

10) I will limit my comments to the officials .... to when we are playing the Novi Jags.
