  • Balls To The Streets!

    Last night was the second time now that I've seen someone doing this. I really hope it isn't a trend.

    It's a new spin on jogging.

    Instead of just running or jogging along and getting your cardio in for the day, why not add a soccer ball and get up and good on your skills? I mean, you don't even need a field. You can just use the sidewalk!

    Yes, twice now (the first time I figured was isolated so I just thought it was stupid and left it at that) I have seen a person (not the same person) running up/down the street with a soccer ball, kicking it, running after it, kicking it again, running after it.......of course, to be expected, the ball sometimes goes into yards or heavens forbid, THE ROAD, and they go get it, escape death (cuz ya know, people drive on the road), and then go do it again.

    If I see it again......I might have to yell something. There's getting exericse, and then there's being plain old.......I'll just call it gifted to not offend anyone.

    And the reason this idiot can't use a training ball (the kind in the bag that they give little kids who can't dribble yet) is what? Oh, wait, it's not as cool. There's no death-defying machoness.

    And no, I don't mean machismo. I mean machoness.

      If you want to play soccer or basketball or whatever, fine by me. But why in the world would you go running with a soccer ball, kicking it along as you run? Normal people are not Beckham, it's gonna go into the road at some point.

        Oh, I see nothing wrong with dribbling as you go for a run. Just swallow your pride, admit that it's an uneven surface (because, of course, you're too perfect to make a bad kick), and use the training bag. It also prevents jerks from kicking it away from you.
