CMSA - Chicago Muslim Soccer Assoc
AA
A couple friends of mine started CMSA and I have to say that it's pretty fun. You'd be amazed that you can get nearly 30 desis up on a Sunday morning to start playing at 7am, but it's happened for the 4th week in a row now.
I def recommend it to anyone to come and play. Get in shape. Improve your skills. Have some fun and some discipline (i.e. the getting up at 6am part -- essentially staying up since Fajr time).
Here are some pics from today:

You should know that I was unanimously voted MVP. Most Valuable Photographer, that is. I was also called The Wall. I am, in fact, a defensive force to be reckoned with, people, so watch out. In the pic below, it looks like Baseer is trying to 1) teach me how to catch 2) teach me what a soccer ball looks like, or 3) pray to the Futbol Gods for good luck or rain...
Anyway, good times. Especially for the first time playing soccer in many, many years. But, man, it's TIRING!! Next time, I'm going to take the camera with me on the field...
Cheers

Correction: We have been playing like this for about 6 weeks now. 1'st week as a prelude and since then as CMSA.
Imran you are THE Wall.
how much does your ass hurt today?
You are all children trying to play a man's game. I am the Pele to your Pee Wee League get togethers. When I come, mark the day, have your camera ready.
On that day, you shall know my name, it will echo in the emptiness you feel inside when you have no more left to give.
