The Mysteries of A Football Player

This pretty much says it all..........

The cockiest, dirtiest, most irresponsible group of athletes in the
world. Will do anything just to be able to tell his teammates a great
story in the dressing room. Live the dream until they are 35 then
realize they never made it. Ladies love us, guys want to be Us, we are
the soul of the universe. You lace up the boots, put on the strip,
strap on the shinpads, and walk on to the pitch and nothing else matters. It
doesn't matter that you failed a test, your girl is being a bitch, or
that you got a ticket on the way there...you're world is absolutely
perfect for the next couple hours. Here's to kick offs, goals, assists,
extra-time, living on the road, early mornings,
going top cheese, countless hours of practice, puking,
thousands of dollars, end to end rushes,
broken twigs, new boots, wheelin'
broads, coaches, adding the letter "y" to the end of everyone's last
name, the word "fuck", pick up, tape to tape sauce, let downs, miracles
and most of all - the game of Football Why?

Why do we run back and forth night after night? running so hard we
throw up. playing so hard your heart beat rings in your head, while your
lungs are grasping for air. Late nights, early mornings, Saturday afternoons
broken bones, torn muscles and deep bruises. We play
through it all. Because we live off our adrenaline, because the game
frees your spirit, because the party in the locker room is second to
none, because you're invincible once you step on the pitch, because one
shot, one pass can make you smile all night, the feel of
the ball, and studs carving into the grass is a rhythm to live by,
because its possible to play so well you leave all your worries
behind. Sweat is the cologne of our accomplishment. Why?

Why would someone push themselves so hard the uneducated pussies always
ask? sunday league, pub teams, junior... It's never
been for the fucking the money, it's not for the girls, and it's not for
the fame. 'The Boys' play because we fucking love it ...

If you are a football player and you are proud to be one, pass this

shit on with pride mother fucker, and let everyone know the
definition of man.
