Playing career

Black began his career with Toronto Supra of the Canadian National Soccer League in 1996.[1] He helped Supra finish with a third-place finish in the league standings, and secured a playoff position. Their opponents were St. Catharines Wolves in the semi-finals, but were eliminated from the completion with a 2-1 defeat on goals on aggregate. In 1999, he signed with Detroit Rockers of the National Professional Soccer League, where he would have a three-year term and finished with 51 appearances and six goals to his name.[2] In 1999, during the outdoor season he signed with Toronto Lynx of the USL A-League.[3][4][5]

In 2001, Black signed with York Region Shooters of the Canadian Professional Soccer League.[6] His next stint in the CPSL was in 2005 when he signed with the Vaughan Shooters. He made his debut for Vaughan on May 29, 2005 in a match against Toronto Croatia.[7] He helped Vaughan secure a division title by finishing first in the Eastern Conference. In the postseason he helped Vaughan reach the CPSL Championship finals, where they faced the Oakville Blue Devils lost to a score of 2-1.[8]

gollark: I am saying that gods are also complicated so this doesn't answer anything.
gollark: For purposes only, you understand.
gollark: There are lots of *imaginable* and *claimed* gods, so I'm saying "gods".
gollark: So basically, the "god must exist because the universe is complex" thing ignores the fact that it... isn't really... and that gods would be pretty complex too, and does not answer any questions usefully because it just pushes off the question of why things exist to why *god* exists.
gollark: To randomly interject very late, I don't agree with your reasoning here. As far as physicists can tell, while pretty complex and hard for humans to understand, relative to some other things the universe runs on simple rules - you can probably describe the way it works in maybe a book's worth of material assuming quite a lot of mathematical background. Which is less than you might need for, say, a particularly complex modern computer system. You know what else is quite complex? Gods. They are generally portrayed as acting fairly similarly to humans (humans like modelling other things as basically-humans and writing human-centric stories), and even apart from that are clearly meant to be intelligent agents of some kind. Both of those are complicated - the human genome is something like 6GB, a good deal of which probably codes for brain things. As for other intelligent things, despite having tons of data once trained, modern machine learning things are admittedly not very complex to *describe*, but nobody knows what an architecture for general intelligence would look like.
