Nigel did you not read my post?? soccer is NOT COOL. there is not contact, there is not pain, its just a bunch a guys running around in short shorts kickin a ball. does a sport get any gayer than that??? and if you get mad and go psycho you get a "yellow card" if you ask me it rates just above baskettball in WORST hs sports. and to top it all off the kids doing it could be doing the 2nd best sport behind tennis. FOOTBALL, soccer season is in the fall, just like football, so you KNOW that all the kids are wimps. i can understand maybe playin during the spring if your not any good at tennis, i mean i do track wich has got to be the 3rd worste sport in hs. but during FOOTBALL???? DOES ANYBODY ELSE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS????
