yup. I’m a fan but I’m paying for it. Started at 12 played junior high, HS, 4 years in college, 8 years in the army, then 4 more years for city clubs. Concussions, separated shoulders, broken ankle, broken fingers, bruised ribs, etc...now at age 43 the first 10 minutes of every morning is agony. 6 years of football contributed too...

I bet soccer players aren’t as sore in their old age...

Don’t tell anyone here, but much of what I am posting tonight is just a wind-up.

I actually quite like the NFL/CFL/Arena/Brit-Euro gridiron, oh and the LFL, lol. I hate baseball and neither like or dislike basketball. NASCAR bores me.

I am just dishing out a few retorts at the uber-macho posts here about soccer.

Soccer players are usually crippled with knee problems.

Rugby players are similar to you.
