Anyone here likes soccer???

Well ive beeing a great soccer fan for quite some time now, and since my home lege sucks (all but Porto and Benfica) i figured maybe someone here would like to talk about any good soccer team, anyone here lives in the UK or Italy???, do you like football, there are a huge lot of hot topics to talk about, im a huge Juventus fan and it breaks my heart whats going on whit them, i love the Barca, the Manchester United and PSV, so here, if u like soccer lets chat, if u dont well, u should learn to love the game, or whats your favorite sport???

BTW anyone here plays texas hold´em, i love that game...

I don' t like sports except when people get seriously injured but i like to play Texas Hold' em. I play it on my 360, although I haven' t for a while. While we' re talking about non-videogame games my game is chess.

My Grandfather was a serious player that competed against the best. He tought me how to play, I used to play in College and pwn students in the chess club. They hated me because I wasn' t even in their nerdy club and i was humiliating them. I remember beating the physics professor 8 games in a row, he was trying to stay composed but I knew was fustrated as I come off to people there as a stoner. I haven' t played in a few years and I probably lost my touch. I think I' ll pick it up again and try to sharpen my skills during my month holiday coming up...

I also used to play alot, i had this very old book i found in myhouse and it was one of my favorite books as a child, i also had a book about dinosaus that was just fantastic, anyways i also played in school tournaments, i was really good in normal games but i just sucked ass on those games where u have a timer and u need to move very fast, i hate that.

How come???

That' s a loaded question. The simple answer is that I think they are stupid but that would be a gross oversimplification. I just hate team sports, it has nothign to do with skill and everyting thing to do with which team has more money. Sports are so comercialized they make me sick. Once you see one game you' ve seen them all, there is a winner and a loser, so what? Individual sports or one on one are a different story though. Like boxing, boxing kicks ass, someone always gets hurt and there is no bullshit team play.

Actually its just an arcade game so its like 5 or 10 bucks and its one of the best Live arcade games. It' s everything it should be, you' re given pretend currency there are ladders etc. very well done. Actually I didn' t even pay for it I got it when they were giving it away for free the first two days it was out. I don' t play online on PC, I' m not that big a poker player I' d rather play poker in person. I might check it out though. I' ve heard playpoker.com is good...

I would like to be a texas hold´em pro, that would totally own, i suck in football anyway, soi dont like to play it, just watch it, i wanna go to see a premier leage match, today i saw Manchester United vs. Chealse, it was awesome, great game, to bad Man U couldnt win, where are u guys from, no one here lives in the UK???

Sure do. I play football almost every day with my buddies.

Hey! The f*ck you talking about?! The Portuguese League doesn' t suck! Benfica owns everything on Europe! Muahah! Or maybe not, but yeah I' m a football fan, I support Benfica as you may have noticed and even though I don' t like to play it I do enjoy watching the Champions League on TV.

Benfica??? pfffftttt, Porto FTW.

But as u may have noticed i said all teams suck but benfica and Porto, are u from portugal as well???

What i said its that it sucks compared to the bundesliga, or the premier leage, or the spanish leage, Hell yeah, Barca for the champions again.



SEMPRE BARCA¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

Sure do. I play football almost every day with my buddies

U live in the UK??? How are the matches, im gonna try to go next year cause i wanna go to the " old traford" to a Manchester United Match, i sure suck playing, i like whatching the game, do u like any particular team???

Forget soccer. Hurling is where it' s at!

Yeah, I' m Portuguese.

Porto suck' s anyway.

Yeah, I' m Portuguese.

Porto suck' s anyway.

Where do u live??? anyhow, are u crazy or u just know nothing about good teams, the Porto its and always be th best

Forget soccer. Hurling is where it' s at!

and WTF its that???

I' m not crazy for not liking Porto. People only support one Team as far as I know, so it' s perfectly normal that I hold grudges againt other Teams that are not Benfica.

Forget soccer. Hurling is where it' s at!

YES! Hurling is an amazing sport. I am surprised there is someone on this forum who likes it never mind heard of it since it is mostly played only here in Ireland! What an excellant sport, so skillful and sooo fast! By the way Eddie, are you Irish? As far as I know there are only two Irish people here on the forum, myself and Silent. It would be brilliant if Hurling was played in more countries and was as popular as soccer all over the world.

We still don' t know what Hurling is...

WTF IS HURLING?!!?!!!1

Am I Irish? Yes and no. Do I live in Ireland, no. but I' m a huge Britt/Welsh/Scott/Irish mutt on one side of the family, the side who' s heritage I' m actually interested in. I can' t tell for sure how much Irish I have in me, because my family tree drops off for about 75 years into nowhere during the mid 1800' s, (my families conclusion is that we were on the wrong side of the law for a while.)

But anyways, I like Hurling way more than US sports, I can' t stand football/basketball. (US football BTW) It' s way more creative IMO, you can use your entire body, & it' s way faster paced than almost any other type of game.

I say you have some since alot of Americans do (You are American aren' t you?).

Yeah Hurling is a very fast game, it is widely regarded as the fastest field game in the world! It also requires ALOT of skill to play compared to alot of sports like soccer which to be honest most people can play (don' t get me wrong I do like soccer also). I was just wondering Eddie, how are you able to watch Hurling matches over in the States? Well you can watch clips on youtube but its not the same.

And for those of you who don' t know what Hurling is please watch the videos of Hurling near the bottom of this Wikipedia page under the heading ' Links' . Tell me what you think.

Yeah I' m American. I know I' ve got more than most people do, but like I said, I don' t know how much.

Eughhh! Hurling on Youtube? That violates the Geneva Accords, I actually had to resort to that when I first started watching.[:' (] Nah, I' ve got " connections" in Ireland who send me the games.

Think of hockey, played with a ball made of brick. Then picture the ball being thrown at your opponent as much as the goal. I think that' s it. I' m not sure if they' re allowed to hit each other with those sticks, but it happens
