It was the year the 49ers won their first super bowl, it was also the last football season my dad lived to see. I was always grateful he got to see his team win. He was so thrilled over it. I was happy that I got to spend that one season with him.... sitting with him, while he explained the rules of football to me. It is a pretty special memory for me.

Nice.

Here is the thing: When I was growing up I spent about ~50% of my time playing football on concrete, in the middle of the street, in the nearby stadium, in the middle of the dirt (grass never lasted long), with backpacks for goalposts, when it was and wasn't raining and even while neighbours yelled at us that they were trying to grow flowers.

A reasonable amount of bullying, scuffles, challenges, spitting and insulting eachother's mothers occured. Cuts, bruises, and blood mixed with dirt.

Innumerable amounts of soccer balls were literally torn apart from being worn down. New ones were purchased and only to disintegrate in a matter of days.
Clothes with grass stains and dirt all over them were bleached repetitively.

If I had to never be reminded of that again it would be like losing part of my heritage.
I would shed one of those single tears that quickly dries up and I can easily deny. [;)]

If that poetic description explain it for you, then you have no heart!
Actually, this reminds me I've become a bit too tame in recent years.

ya juliaoceania, I got that feeling too, :)  Oh well...back to the kitchen I go!


Here is my secret for denying the existence of football during the fall season. Do not resist it existing. It isn't like I go around getting irritated at every football reference. I just don't focus on it. I bet if every time you saw the color blue you got irritated, every clear day would screw with you. If you don't feed it emotionally, it won't even register that it is there. Believe it or not, I try not to be resistent to traffic, long lines, and paperwork. These things used to have the power to aggravate me to the point of needing anger management classes, not anymore.

Try ignoring the existence of football. Act as though it does not exist. It might work for you the way it works for me... Because I can tell you right now, you posting a thread about how annoying you find it has attracted those very people who love it to post a response... see what I mean?

I guess if the game made more sense to me....

A team of men, facing each other, knowing that the path will be blocked, is sort of like running into a brick wall...to get to the inside of the building.    Seems like alot of running into walls to get from side A to side B.  

It's not as if they can't see the wall, it's staring back at them.   Because the wall has ideas of it's own.  At least with baseball there seems to be a bit more logical thinking.   Hit the ball, run the bases, don't hit the ball, no running.  There isn't a line of men padded with 50 lbs of hard plastic waiting to flatten your ass between you and first base.  


I love when women folk point out irrational men folk stuff.

Hey some girls like football too.  Maybe AlwaysLisa needs to be introduced to some "pervved  football".  The possibilities are endless.

You seem..... interested....




brainiacsub -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 6:19:10 PM)

It's only the first half and I'm beginning to have my doubts. Those fuckers already missed a 29 yd field goal. I could've made that.

But, I'm saving all my false outrage until they play the Midgets.....um, I mean the Giants.

I just checked her profile. She's not even a pervert. I'm glad she lives far away.

Put your money where your I just rimmed Domi mouth is.....




brainiacsub -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 6:31:55 PM)

Is this some sort of a challenge, or maybe a bet?




ShoreBound149 -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 6:35:07 PM)

HA

Wager. Whatever the line in the Friday USA Today is before the 10/25 game.

If you come to East Rutherford, the Elf and I will host the tailgate and you can pay me in person.




brainiacsub -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 6:38:01 PM)

You know, Domi has a better chance of getting his dick sucked this season than the Giants have of beating the Cowboys, but sure, count me in. I'll be there.

Leave Lushy out of this.





brainiacsub -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 6:57:13 PM)

Fuck me...Washington just scored on a Cowboy fumble with no time left on the clock right before the half. It's going to be a long night....




ShoreBound149 -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 7:05:22 PM)

I'm going to bed. Flying to Chicago at 6am tomorrow.

Cowboys fans live in all Caucasian neighborhoods and carry Starbucks gift cards.




brainiacsub -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 7:08:43 PM)

Chicago, huh...don't get any on ya.

Poor Brainiac. Her Cowboys have caught the fungus.

I almost agree. The rule is the rule though. It doesn't make any sense though. Ball breaks the plane, touchdown.


Only if you are running with the ball. I think the reception rule is a good rule but it looked to me like he had enough control through the end of the play but obviously the booth did not agree. It also looked like he let the ball go a little early and could have retained physical possession a little longer rendering the call moot.

Having said that I think the Redskins cheerleaders are pretty hot and I love it when an anti-football thread spawns a discussion about football.




Jeffff -> RE: If only.... (9/12/2010 7:22:05 PM)

All he had to do was pick the ball up... game over.


Oh well, when the Bears go to the NFC title game, today will be the game they remember.
