So today I had to break the news to many people that the Noonan/Twellman partnership is no more.
Here are a few of the reactions.
Conversation with my two-year-old Niece Emma
Me: Emma, I've got some bad news...when I take you to your first revs game this year, you won't be seeing Noonan.
Emma: Emma loves Jooooooooooooooooooooosh Beckett!!!!
(clearly she's in denial and it hasn't hit her yet. But good choice in a back-up athlete to love)
Text Messaging with bff, Sarah
Me: NOONAN GONE.
Sarah: Nooooooo! This only proves that taylor cheated on his wife w/noons. Revs couldn't keep 'the other woman' around. PS. I hate Jury duty.
Conversation with big sister, Erin (Emma's mom)
Me: I've got some bad news...Emma needs to find a new favorite player. The Revs didn't resign Noonan.
Erin: Oh, really?
Me: Umm...yeah. And Taylor Twellman is getting divorced.
Erin: REALLY?!
Email with my father who is currently in Russian and away from the travesty that is, the MLS
Me: I've got some sad news, daddy., The revolution didn't pick up Noonan's contract so he is gone. Twellman is trying to leave too. They both want to go overseas. How am I supposed to stalk them overseas????? Can we move overseas?
Dad: Heather, Sorry to hear the news, but that's life. You'll just have to find someone else to stalk. See you soon. I miss you. Love, Dad
I'm really not feeling the sympathy...
