The American Teacher in England

[Chuck]

She notices a boy in the field, standing on his own while all the other kids are running around with a ball & having fun.

She takes pity on him and decides to speak to him.

'Are you ok?' she says.

'Yes. I'm fine, thanks' he says, somewhat distracted.

'You can go and play with the other kids, you know?' she says, hoping to rejuvenate his spirit.

'I know, but I think it's best if I stay here.' Replies the boy, still not entirely focused on the conversation.

'But why?' says the blonde.

The boy turns to her and says: 'Because, I'm the friggin goalie!'
