Thats why I play football, it's the only sport where I can hurt some body and be told good job. This is one of my game last season, no I am not Dre Maddox, but this game smashed the state record for rushing yards. We won 39-38, yeah I was #75 Edited by Menhad, May 31 2008, 08:51 AM.

I obviously back England, even after that pitiful game they played as an exhibition against France... which I saw live... at the Stade de France. Funny thing though, I thought that this thread was referrencing something more evil and sinister before I opened it. That thing I speak of is Eurovision.

But, like my dad said when England did not qualify, I'm going back to my roots. Viva Italia! :)

If the Brits were in it, I would still support Germany, however if the Scots were in it, I'd support them!! Anyone, are there any openly gay players on the European teams??

There has only ever been one openly gay footballer in the history of football and that was Justin Fashanu. He killed himself in Chariots Shoreditch (I think I've even been in the same room where they found the body). Not even those that have retired have come out. Nowhere in Europe.

Um, I thought you didn't do the Saunas! :love: Anyway, according to Wiki, he hung himself in a garage at Chariots, not a room. And yes, he is reportedly the only to come out. What a shame, your footballers are more homophobic than our baseballers!!

And yes, homophobia is rampant in football despite the fact that the top stars (i.e: David Beckham) are unashamed of their very close gay friends (i.e: Elton John and any number of fashion designers). Hence why there is the Gay Football League. And the captain of the best team in the country is Ian....you remember all about Ian right NH?! I've always wanted to be a WAG or should that be a HAB.

That Ian? The pining away for him Ian?? The hot, hot, hot Ian??? Ah, well, and so it goes. Is there a web site for this gay footballers league? A hidden shower cam?? A calander??? A movie???? Also you didn't comment about you not going to saunas, or has that changed? It should be HAG, but I can't figure out what that would mean :D :D Yeah, I can see you as a WAG, sitting in a row with the other WAGs, knitting little ball warmers :evil: and gossiping over your cosmos! Kinda like a little Sex and the City waiting for the game to end!! OK, a little Google here and there, and I review the team members of the Titans and the Stonewall 1st, and find no Ian. So I am, indeed, wondering what team your fit lad Ian plays with! Edited by New Harumf, Jun 3 2008, 10:07 AM.
