I think its cool but everytime I see the number ten I wont think its him, oh well after like 10 games it'll be normal. I'm glad he got the number. The only other person I would like to see in it is maybe Giggs..maybe. Def. not Anderson.

Indecisive? You'd be the same as me then. If i'm ordering a pair of boots, for example, I'll look at them for a few days, ask everyone on SP, ask my friends and family, ponder over it for a couple more days, and then change my mind ten times when I go to order them. And that's just for boots, you can only imagine what i'd be like with something more expensive.

Yeah, haha. But I've pretty much set my mind on getting this. I'm so excited.
Red Carbon
It's always nice when you save up to buy yourself something expensive. I think half the enjoyment I get out of buying football boots and jerseys is saving up to buy them. I remember when I bought my iPod video, it felt so rewarding to know that I actually worked to get it.

That's a good point. It just seems odd that he would do that. Most players want to keep whatever number they're given, no matter what it is, for all their career, so that people will always associate them with it. For example, when Becks had 23 at Madrid, and kept it at L.A. for brand purposes. Actually, I had my number switched from 2 to 8 on my team this season because #2 was a size medium, which was too small. I was sort of happy because Wazza wore it, which was a plus, but now he's switched, so I don't know who to associate it with g.gif Although I hear Hargreaves will be wearing #8 this season, which is almost better, because he's a fellow Canadian!... Or was.

I agree they usually want to keep the number as long as they can. But you bring up Becks he was 10 at first at United, but after Cantona left, he got 7. But I guess that is a bit different as 7 is probably THE number at United.
Red Carbon
And don't forget at the time Becks switched to #7, he was still relatively unknown, or at least just coming into the spotlight. Rooney, on the other hand is one of the big names at the club, so it's a little bit stranger for him to switch.

Number 10, is THE number at UTD. As far as i remember, Beckham wore 10, but when sherringham arrived, they gave the number 10 to sherringam and gave 7 to becks which he had kept until he left. After sherringham, Ruud wore it, it has been vacant ever since, thinking of which great player to give it to, then they obviousy decided to give it to Rooney, anyone confirm??
Red Carbon
One would have thought they'd save it for whatever striker they sign - Tevez, Gudjohnsen - whoever, but it looks to me now like they might not be signing someone as high-profile as that.

Yeah, I'm gonna have so much money in my hands when I go to buy my Ocean. I will think it over and think of how much Tunit equipment I could buy, but I'll still get the Ocean. I was so proud of myself when I forced myself away from Finish Line at the mall with nothing in my hands, haha.

But honestly I'd rather see Rooney in it since he's played for Utd. Like I said earlier give him motivation to live up to the number.

Well on the way to the store, I'd like to see you stressed out if you walked by a shop with a special edition Tunit or something.

Well guys, I'll be leaving for Canada tomorrow. I'll be gone for a week. Hope nothing too exciting happens, Enjoy footybounce.gif

^Oh yeah, thats right. Have fun and try to find some Adidas Outlets!

Also, I forget Happy 4th of July to all you Americans! (one day late)
Red Carbon
The Adidas outlets in Canada SUCK. Trust me. Absolutely no footy stuff. If you're in Toronto, try the Vaughan Mills mall Nike outlet. It's pretty awesome. They have a lot of stock (at least they did last time I was there). I almost got a pair of white/red Vapor IIs right before the IIIs came out, but I was ten dollars short! That was pretty frustrating. Anyway, pred, where will you be going? If you're near any of the cities, you should try and catch some U-20 matches.

Hey Adambayor, how did you find your way over to EF?

Do any of you guys have bebo or anything like that?? Its kinda like myspace

Heres mine BEBO

Hehe, BEBO.

Fortunately, I don't have a myspace. Too many queers that make profiles just to see your pictures, haha.

anyways, my freind is offering to sell me his Air Legends for 20 bucks but they are in decent condition and the sole has a footprint. You can tell the boot has been worn a lot but It is still realy nice but I have heard bad things about wearing an already formed sole.

SHould I get em? Or wait for the 2nd ones to come out?
Red Carbon
20 bucks? Go for it. Even if it means using a different pair of insoles, it's still worth it. That would only be a bad deal if they were unusable.
Ze98
No, they are very usable. He just came back from Europe (france mainly..lucky asshole i wish i could have gone back home tongue.gif ) and bought some AZT IIIs in red so he doesnt need his legends anymore.


But I love the legend's sole...its so grippy. Ill try to sneak some pics of them tomorow in the morning to give you all a better idea of what im looking at.

Can anyone please give me a link to the thread giving step by step directions as to how to break in your boot using the bath tub method? I believe it was started by someone with a biggie avatar... I tried searching for the past hour with no luck!

I didn't make premier...they sent me some automated letter (with my name mispelled!) saying "Thank You, but no."

They basically want me to pay $1000 so I can wait for someone to get injured so I can warm the bench. I do not want to play for Division I again next year, I feel like Im the only one out there that knows anything about the sport...I didn't do bad at tryouts, I megged all their "best" defenders at least 3 times, some more...During the scrimmage I wasn't great but shit I was having a bad week...plus I was one of the only 4 people to show up to the early saturday tryout sad.gif . Fuck...


I couldn't afford it anyways...I hate this city. THERES NO FUCKING PLACE TO PLAY TO TRAIN. I have to pay to join a team that never wins shit. I fucking hate New Orleans it has never brought anything good to me.
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
Wait for what age group and where and get the grand a play for another team or are you on a contract
Ze98
contract? here? my age?


haha i wish. Theres no other team open right now. NOSA (which I wanted to switch to, they go to Amsterdam and play with the Ajax U16 team every year...some kids get noticed and picked up) doesn't have enough players and Lakeview is full, Lafreniere is way far out and full...and that's it for clubs. Just 4 clubs here.


Im in U15 this year, just turned 14 a couple days ago. PLaying at U16 or 17 for division might make it worth it for me...no9t like I wouldn't fit in easily, im bigger then every 16+ year old in this city.





p.s. I forgot to mention that I played for CSA, Carrolton Soccer Association. Louie's club...if you have heard of him.
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
In the USA? Yeah, i also have to play a age group up, im 15 and i play U-17
Ze98
The thing that PISSES me off is that I stopped playing football to play basketball for like 2 years here because everyone told me i had to because of my height. Well, one day I got pissed off and started kicking my basketball around and fell back in love with this sport. So meanwhile I had lost a lot of technique and stuff...and played last season in a lower level then usual. Now I feel like I need to catch up or else I will drown in with the rest and never reach semi-pro or some form of pro football. It deppresses me...
Ze98
Just noticed something...


i sound incredibly emo in those last posts hahahahahahaha

Forget about them. Ill try out for Division I and then after a month or 2 to get back into form ill join premier.


p.s. Did I post in a thread about K leather vapors? I think I did but I can't for the life of me figure out if I did or not...
Mr._Yellow_Shoes
Well good luck brah
crzygrmn
le roi, i sent you a friend request on myspace. haha
Red Carbon
Who here has facebook? PM me if you do and I'll add you.
Ze98
I quit myspace. haha


and I have a facebook. I barely know how to use it though.
Footfield119
Playing in above age groups suck. I was 14 playing U19s a while ago, its not even fun. Just try to have fun with soccer.
Red Carbon
Personally, I love the challenge of playing with people much older than me. They don't expect much from you (well, at least most don't) and if you make a mistake they'll just say: "hard luck, you'll do better next time", or something like that. I was training with a men's team for a while, just to get a bit more practice, and I learned a lot of things from them. You don't really realize the experience of certain players until you actually play with them. I got 'megged by a 50 year-old, so that gives you a bit of an indication of the level they're at.
crzygrmn
yeah, every friday last year i played futsal with most of the men's college team and let me tell you, i got so much better playing with them than just my highschool team
Red Carbon
Speaking of futsal, i'm thinking of starting up a league, of sorts. I'm going to put an ad in the newspaper, telling anyone who wants to come to bring $10-$20, depending on how many people show up, to pay for the rental of a gym. If enough people show up, I may be able to buy t-shirts, or possibly, if I can find any, cheap uniforms. I've got a couple proper futsal balls, and the right goals, so that's covered. There's not too many people in my city who even know what it is, so hopefully with some proper advertising (mentioning that Ronaldinho and Robinho, amongst others, started with it) I'll be able to attract enough people. I'd want to do five-a-side, if possible, but if there isn't enough people, I might have to go with 3-a-side. So what do you think, good idea, or not?

LG enV. It just went up 50$ as soon as I was gonna go buy it.
Red Carbon
Does this mean you're going back to the Ocean? By the way, any comments on my proposed futsal league, guys?
Footfield119
^I'm not. Its such a nice phone (Ocean,) but I'd need to give away my left lung for the bloody service.
Red Carbon
I see what you mean. What bothers me about Canada, is that we've got about three bloody mobile carriers, and they all offer the same phones! It drives me insane. Everyone I know owns a Razer, and you're considered uncool if you don't own one yourself. It can get pretty frustrating. It was the same deal with Crocs. I had a pair well before they became popular, but I got rid of them when they did.
57121K312_jc
crocs lol the only guys i know that wear those never wear shoes anymore, i hate them

I think that's a great idea, some guys in San Antonio bought a run down building, installed seating, and made a very nice futsal arena (i dont know if thats what its called) its really cool because they use the two large garage doors on each side of the building as goals (they removed the garage doors though) ive been there a couple of times, and it looks like fun smile.gif so good luck with that
Red Carbon
Thanks biggrin.gif Hopefully it'll work out. I'm not positive on where we're going to be able to play, but my school's gym mught be an option. There's also a dome going up which has a turf field and double-sized rubberized basketball court, so that could work aswell, but I heard the it's booked through until christmas and it's not even finished until October, so it might not be an option.
Ze98
wawaweewah im getting an iphone!!!!

^What a waste. tongue.gif I got my Orange LG enV tonight. It is so sick!
