Why yes, I do have an ImageShack account

I hardly ever do anything with it. But today! Today I post pictures. Of football players. When I say football I mean soccer, the way every other country in the world does. Or futbol. The ony time football is referring to America football is when I might mention The Beaaaaaars.

OK so why didn't I know that another BHD aficionado had wandered off into football? Between my strange, eclectic flist, I feel like I'm posting to the dead sometimes. I see you know the feeling.

I love that pic of Freddie on "Attitude". I hadn't seen that picture before. I had seen the streaker fan though, just not such an, um, revealing pic. Poor man.

Serg (and most of Real) always seems to be having so much fun. But again, I hadn't seen those pics. The one with Iker on the ground is great. And Iker's expression in the National team pic is priceless.

I've been taking baby steps into the fandom, doing a lot of lurking. :D I've actually been checking out your journal for Maldini pics. But you friended me first! Yay! I'm pretty free-loving when it comes to football, I favor Arsenal but I adore plenty of other teams and players.

I'll put the rest of the "Attitude" pics below for you. I tend to like his magazine photoshoots better than the CK ones. I had to look up the streaker fan because Freddie he gave an interview where he said the Arsenal fans were very respectful and the interviewer brought up the streaking incident an an exception to that. *G*

I love those Sergio and Iker pics. ^_^ They're just so ridiculous and playful. This clip and the Beckham/Iker pictures makes me think Iker is notorious for provoking a playful tussling to get attention, and the way he shields his body suggests he's ticklish. Goalies spend so much time isolated, he has to get his love somehow.

Ah yes, well given this fandom, I'm beginning to think lurking is a good idea. Especially around the end of the season and semi-finals when the die hards who spend entire weekends watching every last game and who live or die with their teams start flinging insults. *face in hands* A little courtesy and tact here ladies

That's it exactly! I understand passion but I feel like an exile at times. I go to one journal: "I hate Cristiano Ronaldo and anyone who defends him!", another journal "After last night's game, Kaká is dead to me. DEAD!", and then another "Chelsea is the Antichrist, Mourinho is Satan, and Frank Lampard is Fat!" and then I back away. :p Lately I've been spamming guede_mazaka, since her fic was what introed me to a lot of players.

Well really, Iker seems less isolated than say Jens. Jens does yoga, Iker gets into friendly tussles, different ways of relieving tension. It's all lovely to watch. :D
