Football/Soccer/Footie
Any of you play? Just curious, please speak up! 
I've played for years, and like it a fair bit.
Anyways, just a place to discuss the wonderous sport. (and it's various names!  )

I used to play a lot... but now it's just kick-abouts with my boys...
Am a happy bunny this week, cos I have supported Chelsea FC since I was 9 yrs old... and that is a very long time!

Thanks! 
I won "most sportsmanlike" aswell..but they accidentally mixed up the engraving on two prizes. So mine said "Most improved player", and my friend who won that one, had "Most sportsmanlike" engraved on hers..
..The funny thing about that is that she is the player with the most yellow cards on our whole team

I started playing when I was around five years old up until I was about ten. My team was undefeated until we got new players and a new coach. That's when I left. It was a fun time though.

I've played for a year in high school but I wasn't very good. I suppose I would have gotten better if I continued with it but I wasn't interested. Now I just stick to the Xbox games and support England and Liverpool FC. I probably would play again if there was a team to get involved with.

I have played, with a few intervals, from age 7 till about 27 when my first child was born. Then later did indoor soccer/football for several years.

No but my dad helped coach the Red Bulls a few years ago, which were known as The Metro Stars back then. He's crazy about soccer.

Football is by far my favorite sport. I like to play it and also watch it.
I support Liverpool and Arsenal.
