Ever had a ball about...

Post by Blaster »

7 - 8 inches in diameter.... and 2 - 4 lbs in weight go up about 20 - 30 feet in the air then you intentionally get under the ball and use your forehead to direct the ball forward? I have.... it hurts.

My head is still ringing, and I don't care how badly we need the other team not to score, I will never ever use my head for that again. I feel like I have a concussion.

Anyways how did your day go?

Yeah, I've been there. I've never taken sports seriously so whenever we played soccer in gym I'd be the clown and try to hit it with my head all the time. I've also taken a lacross ball to the nuts.

During one of our soccer plays, I was standing in front of my team's goal, and guy from rival team shot very hard towards me and the goal. Between the two of us was like 1.5 metres of space.
I wasn't a goalkeeper and I didn't want to have a penalty kick against us, so I defended the goal by taking the ball on my forehead.
Well, it didn't hurt at all. :)

I'd rather take a shot to the face then a goalie drop kick to the head quite honestly.

heh heh heh ... in year 6 (good year) i was our goalie, back then i was an idiot, little has changed, anyway when one of the players would come out to me just them and me i would go out and dive at the ball even though they could kick it into my face. I would put my body on the line and i help us get inot the finals, to bad that on that match, one of the bets players in the league kicked it staight into my face, i had concusion but no broken bones ... i did however one time break a fracture a kids shin cause he was being smart, so when i went for the ball i rolled and i knocked him down from underneath ... it was good ...
