I like that team picture, and especially that rockin' pic of Gareth Southgate just being really pumped up and excited. Does he always wear such a smart looking waistcoat and tie to games?

Also...I had no idea that one could call a team of men "beauties". I know its a very versatile word...but men don't ever get offended by that? Like if someone says "Oh, he's a beaut.", or something like that? 馃

@Scribbles lol Gareth Southgate is being teased a little bit because of his waistcoats. He's even wearing them in the sweltering heat that is covering all of Europe and Russia right now. He has a reputation for being a gentleman......but very tough.

Yeah, we have no problem with beaut etc. We're cool like that 馃槑

I've been watching sports bloopers on youtube (Don't ask me why.lol). Anyway, this reminded me of how imaginative fans can get.

Check this out! Nice work, Greek fans! I've never seen that happen on such a large scale or outside of school tournaments. lol
I hope they recycled, and that somebody at least quoted something clever from the movie "300"... 馃榿

@Scribbles Well at least the fans weren't throwing plates 馃槀

Basketball is HUGE in Greece.

Really? I never knew it was so popular. :)

OMG. I'm shockingly horrible at basketball. And throwing baseballs. I can't do that either-I can hit, but my stance isn't the right way. In Basketball I had a really great fast drive down the court and could pass reasonably well. But I was beyond awful at shooting baskets, unless it was a layup. And got frustrated with defense when everybody grew taller then me and then I had issues with personal body space (for lack of a better term )when I hit my teens and could not do shit there. lol. My best friend was determined to get me better at basketball, and we used to play pickup games everyday after school for three weeks before other practices, because she couldn't understand why I couldn't just keep my head in the game and wanted me in her intramural team. Espeically when I could do it so easily in soccer and volleyball. Then she gave up/I distracted her with the idea of trying basketball while wearing skates (don't try this) and said basketball just wasn't my thing and she should pick someone else. She and I gave it a pretty decent try though.

Volleyball. Ah, I could play volleyball. Loved that sport :P
Still enjoy it, though I'm not as big a fan of those tiny spandex shorts we used to wear and sometimes I still wish I had knee pads-loved those things.
