I've played since I was 4, was captain of the rep team for 5 years, played in the mens league since I was 17. injuries are catching up with me though, partially tore ligaments in my right knee in November (indoor), tried to come back and reaggrevated my knee a few weeks ago.

 

I have a detachable solo rack and strap on a Back Pack to it.

 

g'night Mike

 

Yes....yes I am.

 

You don't wanna what?



And Hi Susan

 

That sucks. My ankles are what has taken a beating with soccer. I tweaked my right ankle again tonight. Trying to do a move my cleat stuck on the ball and i ended up twisting my right ankle. Nothing major, but i don't recover like i used to anymore.

I'm also WAY out of condition to play soccer. I need to get some of my conditioning back before fall if i think i'm going to play.

 

I could probably play if I wasn't so competitive, but if I can't play to my ability I would rather not play at all.

 

I know it will drive me nuts to go play with the adults if i can't keep up because i'm out of shape.

 

Hi Curt

waah, waah, waah

 

Your more than welcome to come out and run around with us and then we will see how you feel when we are done.

 

I would love to, but my knees have taken a trip south so I don't do any running anymore I miss running.... Some days it's very painful to even walk

 

when I'm confident I can play without reinjuring my knee I might just play coed, the pace is slower than mens league.

 

We don't get enough people to play so it is just a coed league. They have 3 levels and I think i'll opt for level 2. Definitly not in condition for Level 1.

 

in years past I almost felt bad playing coed. I've got a pretty good shot (KO'd a couple goalies in my day), most girls just cower when I fake a shot.

 

I was impressed with some of my 13 year olds shots. My hands were stinging after blocking a few of them. If i can keep it down, i have a decent shot. I played mostly defense in HS so my kicks are typically long and high not low and hard.

 

Played with a Porsche today. Nothing is as sexy as launch control with a dual clutch gearbox.
