Soccer Sports News & Betting

To beat the living crap out of a hockey player. I keep hearing these other sports fans saying "if you cant take the hits then go play soccer you wussy". Truth is, I’d be willing to bet that a guy like drogba or bellamy would beat the hell out of any hockey or most american football players. Anyone agree with me?
@Keiran, Dude, just because hockey players wear all this protection and hit people into plastic boards doesn’t make them naturally strong. They take three strides on the skates and then the skates do the rest of the work by helping them glide on the ice whereas soccer players have to constantly sprint, change direction, hustle, tackle and fight for the ball. I just can’t see a hockey player having the explosiveness that a soccer player has. Not trying to put your sport down, but it’s an overstatement when people say that soccer players are weaklings. Watch the premier league or the italian league, man do those boys fight for a wiff of that ball.

haha!

totally!

I love soccer that I agree with you on but I don’t think drogba could fight and beat a hockey player like jay rosehill or really anyone. Maybe like Sean Avery but other than that probably not. Sorry bro.

Roy Keane would destroy any hockey player.

It’s a misconception that Americans have. If they think it’s so soft then i’d love to see them play down the sunday league against the pub teams and tell them that afterwards.

Otherwise it’s just an easy cheap dig to make, whether they believe it or not.

I’m 13, 5′3" and 126lbs

Im a runner, I do track and soccer. I’m thinking about giving up track though because it makes my thighs SO big! All my friends are just so damn skinny that I
sometimes I just feel like taking a knife and cutting off some fat. Most of my friends arent even 100lbs let alone 126! When people first see me they I bet they think, ‘ha! She’s got such big fat legs!’ because when I where jeans you can’t see the side of my thigh, where there is a indent about 5in long from where the sides of the muscle is separated.

My doctor always tells me that I’m not fat and it’s the muscle that makes me heavy but really I’m very self conceious about my body.

For fitness test this year (7th grade) I did:
36 push ups
59 sit-ups
5min 32sec mile run time
16in. For flexibility

I think I did good for fitness testing, what do you think? I have a little bit of asthma but it’s getting better because I’m strengthing and enlarging my lungs every time I push myself.
I feel normal everywhere else except my legs. I have big firm lower legs too.
I’m happy with my set of boobs for my age(32 B).
When I go swimming I don’t feel comforitalble showwing off all my thighs so I where short board shorts and a bikini top.

I want smaller thighs!! What should I do??
Remenber I’m 13 126lbs 5′3"!!
Sorry I don’t have a pic!
Am I fat!?!!?!!!

Happy thanksgiving!!

You are complaining because of muscle?

You are not fat you are just right maybe a bit underweight.
If you are mad that you are gaining muscles from running i think you need to see a therapist cause there is real problems going on in your head.

you’re not fat…you just had an awesome things…i mean your fat…

you are perfect as a girl

Noone is answering,dear, BECAUSE YOU’RE BEING TOTALLY RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!

Your weight is perfectly FINE for your height and age.

Your not fat! You just have an athletic body, which isn’t a bad thing. if it bothers you try not to do sports that work out your legs as much as an example swimming or track. Or you can put yourself on a high calorie diet and continue with sports. But really you aren’t fat and your body is still changing. your only 13.

Do alot of cardio, no leg exercises that will give you bigger thighs.

Well I know someone who has huge thighs but if u want to lose the fat then you might want to talk to your doc and say you desperately want to slim your legs down. I wouldn’t care or make fun of u if I ever saw you. I’d prob tell a bad pick up joke to make you laugh then haha. umm just exercise and talk to ur doc Allie;) Happy Thanksgiving Allie<3 hahahahahahaha

If you think you are fat, then lose weight. Decrease your daily calorie intake and eat clean. You will lose fat surrounding any muscle you might have.

No, you’re DEFINITELY NOT FAT. Weirdly enough, you sound exactly like me as of 1 or 2 years ago only I’m a guy. Seriously, 100% identical, especially if you’re blonde.
Also, It’s basically a given that anyone who runs on cross-country will have big legs, my little brother once said “all you cross country runners look like raptors. You all have huge legs and tiny arms.”
Happy thanksgiving to you too Allie!

You are lying because I have been doing track and cross country for five years and I can run a mile in 6.02 min, so I am not answering your question.

There is this beautiful girl that I like that I met last year in my house in my birth day party. At the time, I did not do anything because I knew a person, that I just met, was making out with her. One year later, my birthday is going to be again. So, I talked to her through facebook. I asked her BB Pin and we have been chatting ever since. We have texted a lot this couple of days. Today, was the day we texted the most. We like rival soccer teams and I found out that we are a couple of animal lovers lol. Today in my country there was a soccer match. We bet that if my team win she would pay for a meal and she will introduce me to her dogs. If her team won, I would pay for the meal and introduce her to my dogs. Well, her team won (lucky me ha ha). I told her that I have to buy her a meal, she just have to say the time and place. She said, that we already know the place (we talked previously about it) the only thing to determine was the time. I told her it was up to her. She only laughed. How the **** should I interpret that? What should I do now?

• LOL, Just come up with a time and go with it! Be like “So how’s… ” ?
• Girls like men to have control over things like this, you need to tell when and what time you’ll pick her up. If you really like her, you need to start acting more instead of doing baby steps, otherwise she’ll get tired of it
• Tell her that you are under her service anytime she would like to have the meal and any place she wants to eat the meal, Just order and I will do what you wish sweetie! After then, during the meal, confess her or tell her anything that shows yo love her!!

Alot of sites now offer live betting. I think it is almost impossible that all the sites can close live betting before an action and even if it is very rare I am thinking there must be times when the live betting closes too late and the public can take advantage.

For example- Lets say Team A and team B are playing in soccer. On a live bet there odds for next goal over/under, the winner of the game, etc. lets say Team A scores a goal. For 2-3 seconds after the goal there might be a delay and the public can still bet on the game knowing Team A just scored.

Like I said this probably almost never happens. And when such a thing happens what does the site do? Will the bets be void for the specific bet?

No way, no how is any site going to allow a bet to be placed AFTER the fact. It just isn’t going to happen.

If there is any sort of delay, these websites know exactly what time, (to the second), that a goal was scored. Any bet that came in BEFORE the goal would be good. Any after would not be good.

Nope doesn’t happen. And if there is a malfunction that allows people to place a live bet after the game starts again they just void all of those bets (as they should). I’ve seen this happen before.

You can play at some major bookmakers like intertops, bookmaker and bodog.
They accept US players. No matter which you choose stick to those three, there are others that are not so good.

Sportbet (A+ SBR Rating) is a good sportsbook for soccer betting and they are U.S. friendly. More info here: http://www.layitdownandwin.com/sportbet.html

You should look at Bookmaker first: http://poker-lobby.com/bookmaker/ This is the best site for payouts and service.

Bodog: http://poker-lobby.com/bodog/ for selection and service.

Intertops: http://poker-lobby.com/intertops/ not as big of selection on soccer but is a good third option if you prefer.

BetOnline is currently your best choice for a sportsbook.

They offer Poker, Sportsbook, and Casino, all under the same account and accept United States Players.

Bodog is another good option, but will be leaving the US at the end of the year (2011).

ok so he is in 9th grade ( high school ) and i’m in 8th grade ( middle school). We met at this soccer camp, and he was constantly staring at me, and when i would look at him, he would turn his head quickly. Then when we had to meet people ( like go up and ask their name and everything) he rushed up to me as fast he could. i only see him once a week at band rehearsals, and when i do rarely see him in the hallways, he won’t talk to me, but i think thats just because since we just met, he doesn’t really have anything to say. One time he was about to ask me out but he said " hi, um, do you want to, um, well never mind " and then he blushed and acted really shy. When ever i see him at band rehearsals, he always tries to get near me, and always compliments me. i’m just worried because i don’t really see him at all, and since i’m in 8th grade and he’s in 9th, he might find a 9th grade girl he likes better. especially since he’s really cute, i bet a lot of girls like him. Will his crush on me just fizzle out? How i do talk to him without seeming weird and random?
also, i don’t just like him cause he is cute. he also has awesome soccer and trumpet skills and he is really nice and funny

he has to have the balls to ask you somthing

just act norman around him and that will work oit for its self

Awwe, how cute. Maybe he’s just a bit uncomfortable on how to approach you so you gotta look “approachable.” When you do see him next time in the hallways, you should smile and wave. Make that first move and show him you’re really friendly (which im sure you are!) Make little conversation during band rehearsal, maybe after he compliments you, ask him something about whatever it is you’re doing in band.

And if a guy really likes you, chances are he’ll do anything to try and get your attention. I guess you just have to make the first move this time.

Ehh, im not really great at giving advice but i hope i helped! Good luck. Remember, smile and wave, haha.

Trust me I don’t think this guys thinks anything you say is weird or random… girl this guy likes you its very clear, but you gotta let him know, use body language and flirt, be yourself, he obviously likes you he’s just scared because he doesn’t think you like him back. So dang girl lett him know and also if he is that cute and likes you out of all the girls consider yourself blessed… becuz you got a guy who really does like you. Also soccer and trumpet skills are verry attractive Good Luck

My cousin and I made a bet to see who could find out the most of each others sport in one day and he plays soccer while I play volleyball. I need to know as much as I can about soccer, but all I know is that there’s a black and white ball of pentagons and hexagons. Here’s what I’m looking for:
- The position names and what each position does
- Some of your favorite famous soccer players and what position they play, what team they play for, and why you like them (At least five)
- Your favorite teams and why you like them
- Your least favorite teams and why you hate them
I’d appreciate it if your answers were a little lengthier and well explained because after all, you may be the one getting a best answer.

BONUS:
If you add some information about Spain’s team and players along with the other info, that will be amazing!

• goalkeeper- protects the net… can use hands inside the 18 yard box
  center back- central defensive player usually not involved in attack
  Left back or right back- defend left or right side of the field respectively… sometimes involved in attack also
  left midfield and right mifield- usually fast player with good skill, often crosses the ball into the opponents 18 yard box and also works back on defense
  center midfield-controls the field can be defensive or attacking or both… it is said that a center midfielder works from “box to box” or 18 yard box to 18 yard box.
  striker/forward-same thing- looking to score as many goals as possible very rarely work back on defense… are usually either very tall or very fast.. or both

  5.Zinedine Zidane- Juventus/Real Madrid/France- had an eye for goal considered by some to be the second best to ever play
  6.Wayne Rooney-Manchester United/England- Not overly fast or strong but when in form has to be considered top 5 in the world currently scores goals in bunches…
  7. Xavi-Bacelona/Spain- the classic center midfielder… amazing vision and ability to pass, currently considered 3rd best in the world…
  my favorite teams
  1. Brazil(national)- great history, most world cups (5), play “the beautiful game”
  2. Manchester City(club)-different from manchester united… have alot of money with many young players and are building strength, currently winning the English premier league
  least favorites

my friends friends moms sister daughtesr niece sons uncles aunt was in my moms soccer team with my friends mom sister and brother wohs friend was dating my mom which friends borther took my friends aunt sister cousins sister to the prom which my uncle s sister friends roomate is our teacher

did i confuse you?

Have you never learned to use apostrophes?

What is a friends friends moms sister daughtesr niece sons uncles aunt was in my moms soccer team with my friends mom sister and brother wohs friend was dating my mom which friends borther took my friends aunt sister cousins sister to the prom which my uncle s sister friends roomate is our teacher?
Care to use commas…

I can tell you just wrote random thongs down. Having you mom or aunt on your soccer team and dating kids your age… Well it’s disturbing

NOPE! Chuck testa!
Broken down: Your friend has a friend who’s cousin was part of your mom’s soccer team with your friend’s Aunt and Uncle. A friend of your friend’s uncle was dating your mom. The brother of your mother’s friend took your friend’s 2nd cousin to prom. And one of your uncle’s sisters has a friend that shares a room with your teacher.For next time, I suggest more complications, such as great grandparents,great aunts etc.

My girlfriend plays soccer, and she has rock hard thighs!!!! She can leg press about 300 pounds, right now we just bet on tommorow morning, that when she puts me between her thighs and squeezes my neck, she will knock me out in 15 seconds. Could this be true? Should I call it off? We bet 20 bucks

um you might want to call it off. you can die from breaking your neck….

no, this is impossible.
firsst off, in order for her to do this; you must have a gag in your mouth to cut off air supply direct from your throat and esphoagous.
nothing could possibly go wrong!!!
GET MONEYY

MONEY OVER BITCHES MONEY OVER EVERYTHING

why would u call it off??? U GET TO HAVE UR HEAD BETWEEN HER THIGHS!!!!!!!!!!

ya that could be dangerous, call it off. Is 20$ really worth it, and why would she want to do this if you already know she kicks ass. but then again i can leg press about the same and i dont think i would squash my husbands brain out know matter how hard i try.

Break it off, for 3 simple reasons.
First, she leg presses 300 pounds, your neck is barely a pound. You do the math.
Second, it’s either this girl breaks your neck, you loose 20 bucks, and you possibly won’t be able to walk again, or you loose your manlyness for about 15 minutes, and life goes on.
Third, what kind of girlfriend wants to knock out her boyfriend by chocking him with her thights…

I’m just 13 years old, and I want to study & move there in America. I really love it there. I bet education there is nice. I really want to move out of my school now because of some girl in my batch gossiping about me. My batchmates are starting to hate me now. Especially her soccer group. I don’t know what I did, but they just started hating me now. And my ex-bestfriend(boy) is hating me now too. He’s in soccer too and she’s brainwashing him. I really don’t know what I did but she’s ruining my reputation in school. I’m nice to my friends but now people think I’m such a bitch or something like that. And now, I don’t know who I should trust because most of my friends are showing and making me feel that they’re on her side. I don’t know what to do anymore. My only option is that I should move to America and live and study there so that people can just forget about me there.
Please guysssss, I really need your help, please give me some ideas on how to convince my parents to let me stay there and study. Are public schools expensive in Richmond, VA? I have family there so I think it’d be great. Thanks a lot in advance guise.

America sucks. If you study anywhere, sudy in Ponyville.

You should think more about it. Do you really want to go to America because of better hopes of study or just because of a stupid girl? You might find another like that girl where you go. Talk to that girl. There might be some misunderstanding or she’s just trying to get your attention.

Public schools in the U.S. are free for all students, foreign and citizens alike.

edit: what country are you currently in? You can tell them that ti will be much easier for you to attend a university here if you graduate from a highschool here because you will have all of the right paperwork that uni’s will ask for and wont have to go through hell compiling a bunch of foreign documents and meeting a bunch of deadlines and writing sponsorship letters etc.
