  1. Yah little jabs here and there are part of the game. The rest of that crap has no place in real soccer.
  2. Yes, that is a "slide tackle". A tackle in soccer is really any play where the defender tries to take the ball from the ball carrier. examples: Block tackle The block tackle is the most basic way of depleting an opponent of the ball. It is designed to give you possession while keeping you on your feet. Plant your supporting foot firmly so that you don't lose balance. Then, just as your opponent contacts the ball, you must put your free foot perpendicularly to the direction in which he is moving. If executed properly, this will cause your enemy to stumble or cough up the ball. Poke tackle With poke tackling, you basically stab the ball away from your opponent. You must use the foot which is closer to the ball. This method does not guarantee that you will gain possession of the ball. Slide tackle Although spectacular, slide tackling should not be used unless in desperation or when you're away from your own goal. It can also be very effective against opponents dribbling down the sideline or shielding the ball.
  3. Suspended Funny what the officials let the women get away with. In a mens game, the red card would have come out right away.
  4. If you have made up your mind, why does it depend?
  5. I was referring to why Conner may have said "he's a Muslim in Texas". I am not falling for the excuse. IMO this was a terrorist attack as the shooter believed the "war on terror" was a war against Islam.
  6. Any chance Muslims are not very popular in Texas?

  21. Brador is 6% and yes it is a malt, but just because a beer is 5% does not make it a malt. Most beers in Canada are 5%, with light beers being 4%.
  22. There I sat Broken hearted paid a dime but only farted next time I took the chance I saved a dime but s**t my pants.
  23. I like air popped....I add salt and a little vinegar. mmmm If microwaved is the only option, I would go with Redenbacher's smart pop stuff. Do they still make that Jiffy pop stuff, I remember having those at the campfire.
