Originally posted by Michael McDermott Who here has ever strapped themselves into a proper set of football pads?Just curious......

I did play football in highschool, but it has NOTHING to do with the organized high school football you have in the US.

And it's Canadian football, so larger field, 3 downs only, etc :D

Offensive right guard was my position!

I did play basketball too.. since I'm 6'3" it was a natural thing, but I broke my knee while practicing, and that stopped most sports for me unfortunatly.

I was a tight end.

At 6'3", I also played basketball. However, I didn't blow out my knee until six years ago. Modern sports medicine has allowed me to continue to abuse my old (33 yrs.)body. :D

oh...you meant OUR football??? sorry...I did the wide out/cornerback thing my first 3 years of high school...did some time at point guard in basketball (2 years)...and split time between second base and shortstop in baseball all 4 years...as well as throwing in the occasional tennis match when it could be squeezed into my busy schedule...

oh to be young and athletic again!!! :cowboy:

Ray Might be out for the season, anyways, it still very disappointing to have him miss the last four games including tomorrows game. I'm still surprised of how the ravens are doing despite losing just about everyone on the team. I was disappointed when Dat Nguyen went down over there in Dallas. I had some pride knowing that he became the vietnamese player in the NFL. We were actually born in the same camp in Arkansas.

Originally posted by Michael McDermott I'm down with the NFL and college football. At the present time, one of my teams is worth a damn. I graduated from U of Texas and my 'Horns seem to have gotten over the hide tanning they received from OU.Anyway, the Cowboys blow and they will blow for a long time. It would seem that Jerry Jones used all his GM magic to win three Superbowls in the early '90's.You guys can't be too happy with Ray Lewis being out for the rest of the season. Keep that guy away from stretch Navigators! Idle hands are the Devil's workshop........

Move to Toronto and become a Leaf fan, then you will see panic. People here are none to happy about the play of the Leafs. Oh well good one them.

Wen (Michael)

Dat is a very popular player here in Dallas and was LOVED at Texas A&M.

I went to school with a lot of Vietnamese kids. In high school, a friend of mine named Vinh was about to be starting QB our senior year. Unfrotunately, he moved to Austin before that.

However, he went to UT as I did and we hooked up to form an intramural team. We we're called the Napalm Bombs (NOTE: this was his idea, not mine. He and our other team mates were born in Viet Nam and remember the very end of the war). I was me (big possesion receiver) and many speedy Vietnamese.

It was great because we ran a Run-and Shoot offense and he could just line us up and give directions in Vietnamese (he just yelled old high school plays to me :) )

i like basketball, but it was may for fun when jordan was with the bulls, but my first love will always be (american) football win or lose. i am obsessed with the chicago bears.

I think it is very odd that Jordon is playing for the Wizards now. I've never really been into basketball, but when you think basketball, you think Jordon, when you think Jordon, you think Chicago, not Washington DC!
