I play soccerball, its only a shitty work team though. Played 12 games lost 9. Thats how bad we are.
I am an adequate defender although I have a worrying tendency to give away free kicks in every match we play. _________________ Kindly stick your Quran/Bible/Torah up your holier-than-thou arsehole you square.

No I don't play, which is actually quite exotic for a dutchman, but I do appreciate watching a good scoccermatch every now and then.

I played all through high school on our team having the distinction of playing every possible position on the field at some point during my senior year, then played some intramurals and pickup ball during college. I hadn't played in a real game in years until a pickup game when I visited my friend in Lisbon a year ago with his work friends, then we started up a work team here playing in the county indoor league last winter. We kind of suck, although I've scored 3 with 1 assist out of 7 goals our team has scored in two games this season so far. These days volleyball is my best sport. _________________ "The very existence of flame throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.' - George Carlin

i played competitively growing up through my sopohmore year of college. Hung up the boots for a few years, but am slowly beginning to play again. It was always my best sport, so I figure I cant give it up for good, nor would I really want to. _________________ A liberal is a conservative who has been arrested.

no, i'm not happy. that's a stupid argument. i usually here good things from you too man.
there is a lot of things we can't do when we get old but that doesn't make it a waste of time while we're young. it makes us cherish it more because we can only do it for a limited time. there are so many benefits to sports it'd take forever to list. _________________ "Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has" -Martin Luther
