The guy who gets kicked is tougher than I ever want to be.

Seriously, he's all, "Why you kick me in the face, mang, this guy over here's the rear end in a top hat"

This happened to me once, although it was hit a little harder, when I wasn't braced for it and I was knocked out cold for a few seconds and then I had to go to hospital with a severe concussion. The difference was I actually got hit in the face, not the hand and dived. If it had clocked him where he claimed it did the pitch would be covered in blood and cerebrospinal fluid.


That's almost exactly the way I got hit a few weeks ago, only it was a hard, blind clearance from a center back I was pressuring and about half the distance.
This is the result, although it took about 10-15 minutes to get like that. Nothing broken, but it hurt like hell.

The way this is worded makes me think that everyone in Wales knows "Frank the Caretaker". Or that he's Frank, the Caretaker of Wales.

Super, super nice of them to include footage of their newest acquisition. Bale must be so happy (even if he's in black and white only)!

Maybe I'm missing something here, but, uh... Portugal acquired Bale?

What does Gareth Bale look like.

No, I got that, kudos on the monkey joke (I chuckled, really), only CR's with Portugal there, not Real, hence the question of who acquired whom.

But really, who gives a poo poo

Olivera and Matic's are cool team goals but nothing compares with Zlatan's

You've basically got long-range shots and bicycle kicks, or Zlatan's, which is both. No contest

Don't forget this one from 2006, foreshadowing 2010 with Lampard's goal being disallowed by a German keeper :tinfoil:

Reading that tweet I can only assume Zlatan always refers to himself in the third person, and I won't believe otherwise :colbert:

That field is pretty nice. I've reffed twice out there. Who do you play for?

I've played twice out there. It's a drive and a half, but worth it. I play for Aztex, TORSO over-thirty coed rec league. Ever ref for them? I've probably complained about you if you have. :v:

Checked my game list but I only did Dutch lions, hurricanes and Bearkats. I've been wanting to play again. What's the skill level on the over 30 coed league? I played in college but my wife is basically a gimp

It's pretty varied, the top division (of four) has some really good players, still amateur but quite a few that played through college or for other high-level club teams in the HFA. The bottom division is pretty poo poo, a lot of the teams have a handful of 60+ year old players who have been playing in the league for many, many years and basically use it as an excuse to get outside. Plenty fun, though, really laid back but still a bit competitive.
