The Footballer
Guessed what prized possessions i got my worthless hands on this week?
A book that’s over 2 centuries old, on Australian Football.
As a non-footy fan, i couldnt give a hoot about this book. I would, however, keep the book for posterity’s sakes as it fetches a high price.
Now wouldn’t you, a footy fan, covert the book?
How much would you pay for it?

Whats it about? Where did u get it from?
200 years old in a specialised subject, start
the bidding at $500.00, that’s in American Dollars,
convert to the Australian Dollar it’ll yield priceless
to some one or you can give it away to the person
it means the most to, not being me since its not about baseball!

1877 is not over 2 centuries ago, it actually 129 years ago which is just over one century.
Altho watching a game of AFL does feel like 2 centuries have passed.
I found a WWII dictionary today with a special section
on War terms-I kept that bastard it was in a bag
on the side of the road.
My mate thinks I’m nuts.

@Laurie, Interesting…
@Bjorn, You think AFL games are slow? Please don’t tell me your a soccer fan.
Nope, I find watching soccer to be similar to watching paint dry. I fully understand why soccer fans are so angry, watching a game for 90 minutes and only seeing 1 goal must be torture.
There is only one football and that is Rugby ;-)
Now I will run away very quickly before the Soccer and AFL fans beat me up.
Ok, Rugby is a good answer. Lets also add cricket to the similar to watching paint dry.
Before you pick on baseball think of how passionate
a baseball fan can get and your likelihood of ending up
on the floor during innings.
Best sex I’ve ever had was between innings.
How often does your mate take ‘ya watching footy.
Laurie
Haha, Its usually like 2 minutes between innings.
With a footy half time break, you have enough time for sex and a sandwich afterwards.
Footy half time? Isn’t that like, 15 mins?
And you’re able to muster an erection, an orgasm and post-coital feed?
Whatever happened to good old fashioned foreplay? I pity your partner.
:O
Half times probably a bit longer than 15 minutes.
Foreplay?? I’m a (straight)man in a relationship.
Think a 15 inning game; love those extra innings!!
I get lots of foreplay through the game he falls in two.
Laurie
What are you saying Neil? You’re digging a deeper hole everytime you speak lol.
Are you saying that, as a straight man, there’s no need for foreplay? Not only do i pity your partner now, i’m beginning to feel sorry for you.
Guys like you are a million in a million - the kind all women genuinely try to avoid! Last thing they want is a case of I saw, I came, I didn’t conquer.
Hmm, dont really want to go down this road but lets just say everything is good in that category.
My comment has half joking but as relationships progress there is less foreplay. Theres also less dinners out, roses, and chocolate. Its just a fact of life.
So…how bout that football book
Haha, there’s no need to get defensive. A facet of a relationship is what you’ve just descrived - every sweet and oh-so-mushy stuff tends to lessen. But hey foreplay is still important!
The book, well, i’m doing some research on Australian sports. My lecturer has been kind enough to show me his book collection.
It’s hard, especially when you’ve absolutely no interest in ‘handball’.
Oh, and that analogy on watching paint dry? Ouch, i pity your obscene lack of understanding in a global game. It’s ok, as long as you keep obsessing over your national sport, your myopia wouldn’t be frowned upon.
:O
I can only speak from my own experience, foreplay
gets bettre’ with age much much bettre’
where do you mates get this confounded information anyways?
Laurie
I think it’s still important. Though there’s less of it in a marriage or long partnership.
I don’t know about Neil though. He cracks me up.
Too much time spent posting on here for foreplay and international games of cricket and soccer. I expect to see a post on “romancing the opposite sex”.
@Laurie, Lets go Mets!
