Here is a Google link to an overhead shot of the USD campus. (Sorry _I could not figure out how to post a picture of it.)

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF8&q=university+of+san+diego+sd+california&fb=1&gl=us&hq=university+of+san+diego+sd&hnear=California&cid=0,0,1405528941972512169&ei=33fETOOXBYGesQPj3I2gDA&ved=0CCMQnwIwAQ&ll=32.772997,-117.184939&spn=0.004854,0.006866&t=h&z=18

This is pretty darn funny.... Note how there is the soccer field (Valley Field) right next to the Torero Stadium. Too small for any fans though I guess... Well, maybe not for the amount of fans at USD.... Heck, they could have put those High Def cameras on top of that building at Valley Field.

What in the world is up with that soccer field half line stripe??? Am I going loony or is this some sore of major line stripe blunder? Maybe it is a secret new practice technique? This half line stripe thing is really confusing Trenchcoat. Maybe I'm missing something?

Thats just an artifact of google maps' 45 degree view. If you switch to overhead view or zoom out a level, it is corrected.

They are trying to confuse the opponents' shooting aim .. by offsetting the shooting line to goal .. as in "parallax" .... !
