Cupcake and Studmuffin

[Mark Padgett]

In my local kids rec league (which I schedule, etc.) we have lots of HS kids officiate. One of the girls, who is a HS junior, asked me to schedule her with this guy who is a sophomore in college. Apparently, she has a crush on him. They're both good refs so, being the incredibly nice guy that I am, I said sure.

One of the other kids told me this girl's nickname at school is "Cupcake" and she refers to this college kid as "Studmuffin". I make the schedules out in advance but have to revise them every two weeks due to changes. The last set I sent her showed the scheduled refs for their games as "Cupcake and Studmuffin".

When I saw her at the gym the other day, she told me two things about getting that schedule.

1) she laughed really hard
2) she had to hide it from her mom
