Today I got my first chance to work a game with the New England Revolution. Our in-game responsibilities were pretty easy. I distributed lineups to the TV trucks, stats to the officials, and did post game interviews with Scott Caldwell, Chad Barrett, and Matt Reis. The game will be easy to remember due to the wind. The Revs recorded their first shot of the game in the 77th minute due to the win causing havoc on all passes. Overall it was an uneventful, but enjoyable experience. The Revolution tied Sporting Kansas City 0-0. New England now has four points in their first three games of the season, which is better than most people were predicting.
When it comes to the Revolution I have now met a few players and all of them have been nice and easy to work with during my internship. The No. 1 overall pick in the MLS SuperDraft, Andrew Farrell, has been especially fun to work with in Foxborough. He has an exceptional attitude every time someone asks him about a game the first word out of his mouth is fun. It is great to hear a professional athlete talking about how fun it is to be an athlete.
