If you could have played for any team.......

I would want to play for team that did what no one else had ever done ... a team that made history that won't ever touched ...

 

Early 70s Ajax (it's a club soccer team from the Netherlands). The team revolutionized the sport and scored massive amounts of goals.

Second...1950 USA soccer team which beat England 1-0 in the World Cup. Greatest and most humiliating win over the Brits since the revolution.

Back in America, I love me some Cleveland teams, but hell no would I want to be on those teams that blew it.

 

Forget the coach's daughter man. I'd have been knee-deep in Lyla Garrity. She's so hot just looking at her gives me a sunburn.

 

So in other words, you wouldn't want to be on any Cleveland team.

 

...... I would have played for the Tecmo Bowl Raiders.

 

I don't know, man...we *are* talking Riggins' sloppy seconds here. That also unfortunately rules Tyra out. Fuck it...I would've just boned my rally girl like I owned her

Also on the topic of 'fiction', being a main-event to mid-card member of the nWo in about 1997-98 would've been cool. Even if you were a bum, you got plenty of face time and the WCW guys had to job to you.

As for real life, I'd love to be a third-string quarterback on almost any NFL team. Just show up for practice, pray the top two guys don't get hurt and watch the dough roll in.

 

Aside from the 70s Steelers and 80 Olympic hockey team, I'd take 2007 Barnsley FC.

Barnsley, a team in the second-tier team of the English soccer system, beat Liverpool and Chelsea in the FA Cup.

 

for the sweet love of piss.

 

You have something against plucky underdogs?

 

i'm not going to answer that. i'm afraid you guys will ban me from the soccer thread ... again.

 

for the 1990 Bills in place of Scott Norwood, and I'd nail that sucker right down the middle.

 

Patches O'Houlihan and Lance Armstrong would be proud.
