Hey now. Hockey doesn't have any fat people. In fact the only positions in sports where fat guys excel is baseball pitcher and football OL..
It's funny because I never liked soccer until I met my current g/f who loves it.. Now it's one of my favorites to watch. I even spent the 8 pounds to watch the EPL games live streamed online all year... 1/22/2006 9:33:18 PM |

hockey is one of the most physically demanding sports out there, and you have to have good balance as well. i did know a couple of fat hockey players (well fat compared to the rest of the team) and they either played goalie, or were the worst players on the team. if you want to talk about fat kids look no further that can't play any other sports look no further than the offensive lines at most high schools. 1/22/2006 9:35:05 PM |

Fat kids become linemen...or pitchers...or outfielders...or goalies/goalkeepers.

^^^ There's always a bit of glory when you end an unbeaten run and shut the mouths of players who think they're better than they actually are
and just as RVN said earlier this month, it's only a matter of time before Chelski falls apart. You can pull a Real Madrid and throw money at players to get them to come to your club, but when you've got no room for them on the field or the bench and they've got to watch the game from the stands (Shaun Wright-Phillips), then they wont stick around for long. 1/23/2006 6:15:37 PM |

Are you kidding me? He's a god at arsenal. He already holds the record for most goals by a player. He's got fantastic support. His team went undefeated for the first time since the 1800s last year.
Please tell me you're kidding me.
Plus, half of his squad are members of the French national team with him. They've got great chemistry. Arsene Wenger the coach is also a frenchman. So again, you have to be kidding me.

That makes no sense! He's good because he plays against the best players in the most prestigious league in the world. And he still sets records for goals. And he still out dribbles five defenders and scores. Again, he's got a fantastic support squad, a fantastic defense, a great goalie in Lehman, a fantastic coach which led the gunners to the first undefeated season in a century... why would he want to leave? I think he's living up to his true potential. Yeah, stick him in MLS and he'll score infinity goals, but that's not a true test of how good Henry actually is.
He is, by my accounts, better than Rohnaldino, better than Trezegeut, better than Zidane; he's quite simply the most talented football player in the world. 1/24/2006 3:20:53 PM |

You must keep your account at a bank with no money, then.
Henry is good, but he's not the best player in the world, and not by a long shot.1/24/2006 5:50:53 PM |

i retract my statement of you winning earlier. If i was henry and i am as good as you think i am i would leave. losing to wigan (which are doing surprisingly well) in the carling cup tonight means no probably no silver ware this season. playing in a team sport i would want the silver ware not personal records. 1/24/2006 6:45:14 PM |

Not by a long shot.........
^^ Ive got to disagree Kilj. Perhaps he isnt the all around best player, but he is definitely one of the most gifted goal scorers in the world.
And I have heard that from the mouths of many EPL and Non-EPL coaches.
I suppose it all boils down to what one considers 'the best'

I don't think he's the best one-on-one player in the world, but he is the best finisher. Give him a square ball within a yard of his feet, and he'll put it in the net, whether that means lunging for it, stopping on his left foot to put in a ball that's behind him, or whatever. He's also got the tools to do a lot of unconventional/creative things (the backheel goal against Charlton when he was being smothered by a defender, after bringing down a scorched Reyes cross with one foot). On occasion, he gets the inspiration to thump an amazing free kick. If I was building an ultimate squad from active players, it'd be Henry and Rooney up front with Ronaldinho withdrawn, no doubt. 1/25/2006 5:09:02 AM |
