I'd just like to vent a little, please

I'm not an angry person, but when people are jerks to my friends/teammates, I get really mad. Almost like, I want to take someone out mad. Nah just kidding, but I did feel that way this morning at my soccer game. The team we played had a small, frizzy haired girl who seriously had anger issues. A girl on my team named Nicole was trying to get the ball away from her and she elbows Nicole in the stomach, then pushes her to the ground. Nicole started crying and ran off the field because she was so overwhelmed and the half was almost over anyways. The ref didn't even call it! About 20 minutes later, we were winning 1 to 0. First, as I kicked the ball away from a different girl on the other team, she elbowed me in the head when I ran in front of her. Oh, that was fun, luckily it didn't hurt, just a slight headache. But here's the worst part. Our coach calls the ref to do subs (switch girls out and put others in) and the ref blows the whistle, but girls on the other team keep playing and the ref didn't tell them to stop. So, while everyone on our team stops playing because of the whistle, a girl on the other team was headed to our goal to score. So a girl on my team Megan ran after her and they collided and fell. The ref called it on us. Oh my freaking gosh! Players, parents, coaches, and just about everyone else were yelling at each other. I was about to explode when he gave the other team a PK and they scored because the ref said Megan tripped that girl...oh please! So now the other team has all this momentum and within 2 minutes of that last goal, they score again. Our goalie was losing all her confidence and by the end, they beat us 2 to 1. Everyone on our team was furious, and oh my gosh I was so ticked. I had to go on a run when I got home to calm me down. Stupid REF!
I'm sorry, if you read that you'll probably think I'm a phsyco freak who has anger management problems. But I just needed to get all of this out of my head. So thank you for letting me share. The end.
