sobo Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Mebbe Albert shoulda told Winston he coulda made that clip 5 minutes shorter if he didn't show every fuq'n goal 3 or 4 times... Quote
j_b Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Kind of unfortunate he didn't have better life hygiene (too much partying) since he was the best striker of his generation by a mile (or two). Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Now if they'd just televise goals and cut the rest out, I might be able to stay awake during a game.... Quote
j_b Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Like many things, footie is an acquired taste. Quote
rob Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) i love how Seattleites are starting to call it footie, wearing scarves and pretending that they're European and that they've ALWAYS been into soccer. It's like when kids in high school show up one day and suddenly they're all goth. "I've always been like this, man!" Â SCARVES UP??!!! LOLOLOLOLOL fucking retarded.

ivan Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 i thought footie was australian rules football? Quote
rob Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 It usually is. But I guess it can also mean association football (aka soccer) because I've noticed more and more seattlites calling it "footy" -- they think it's lends an extra european flavor to it, or something. Quote

tvashtarkatena Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) American football is like watching gladiatorial combat: Superhumans performing superhuman feats. Â Soccer is like watching a bunch of your neighbors chasing a lost cat. Â I don't watch either one. Edited October 4, 2011 by tvashtarkatena Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 And here I thought 'footies' involved only two consenting adults. Â Gotta go. Time to take the neighbor's dog for a walkies. Â Cheers! Quote
j_b Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Soccer has been very popular in the Seattle area for a long time already. The Sounders had a large fan base starting in the 70's (when rob was likely still in diapers). In fact, it is probable that Seattle had the first soccer moms. Quote

Â Soccer moms have been very popular in the Seattle area since the 70's They tend to have a large fan-shaped base. I had my first one in the early 80s. Quote
j_b Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) Thanks, Cliff! Â What are you trying to say, jackass? Â It's nothing to be especially proud of but I saw my first Sounders game in ~1978, decades after I first played the game. I don't consider myself a Sounders fan btw.

Â While I like it enough it's just not catching on to compete with smashmouth and other sports. Yea, yea, lots of kids play. But when they get to be adults they apparantly move on. Oh yea, a whopping 40k to watch the Sounders. Quote
tvashtarkatena Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 If I only had more imagination.... Quote

Sad. dude, you're goign too far when you start dissing on "cheers!" Â what could possibly be MORE american than a show about a buncha pissed off workers spending every evening of their life getting tanked in the same bar? Quote
