Except me.

If an attacking player from team A is further forward than the last defending player from team B, the attacking player is offside.

There is more to the offside rule...

A player is in an offside position if:

he is nearer to his opponents' goal line than both the ball and the second last opponent

A player is not in an offside position if:

he is in his own half of the field of play or
he is level with the second last opponent or
he is level with the last two opponents

A player in an offside position is only penalised if, at the moment the ball touches or is played by one of his team, he is, in the opinion of the referee, involved in active play by:

interfering with play or
interfering with an opponent or
gaining an advantage by being in that position

There is no offside offence if a player receives the ball directly from:

a goal kick or
a throw-in or
a corner kick  
He who walks in another's tracks leaves no footprints. Joan Brannon
