Literally the only sport where I see a picture like that and think "NOT photoshopped."

now that the NFL Thread has a more accurate title, can we now go ahead and drop the 'Sounders til I die' from this one?

So what should the new title be?

I'm open to suggestions.

Har har. The guy who went to one Timbers game with the digs... I've been to two Timbers games matches, and watched two others on television a 55 inch LCD flat screen. I'm still pissed not caring the city ran their baseball team stick and ball team out of town, then filled the void by uber supporting the Timbers newest hipster fad to the point that there is a waiting list guest list of people waiting to cheer on their local team go along with the newest hometown trend.

'How Can 6,000,000,000 5,500,000,000 People Be Wrong?' 'Hope Solo is Hot!...and other Soccer Talk' and finally... 'We do it with our Feet'

Since I would be wearing shin guards like everyone else, I would fall down if the force of the kick caused me to lose my balance, then I would get up and continue playing the sport. If the whistle blew, and the force of the kick was such that my shins hurt even with the pads, I would grimmace a bit and walk/run it off. In other words, I'd be a man about it.

In other words, I'd be a man about it. come on, know, you have to admit that is a really naive response. shin guards really don't do that much on a direct kick. they do absolutely nothing on an indirect kick. shin guards really don't offer anything other than the illusion of protection. soccer tackles, (the real tackles - not the phantom ones) vary in degrees of pain: none to excruciating light tackles are soft - normally takes a player less than 30 seconds to get back up. hard tackles that hurt like a bitch - and can take the player as little as 30 seconds to 5 five minutes to get the feeling back in your leg. then there are the fucking brutal tackles where you actually break a bone and can't get up. my point is, sometimes it's not as simple as walking it off

Stamper, I think the one thing we can agree on about soccer is that we are the only two posters that actually enjoy it.
