Fast times at Antonio Machado


In a 0 C temperature we won 10 matches out of 11 , but i scored only 2 personal lame goals , this is a bad sign for rest of the week, and the final sad result of my soccer weekly date with the nice brazilian gang.

People always blame me of taking my own performence at soccer matches , and more with basketball matches in a super serious way , to the limits!!. they told me all the time "we play for fun!!", and i never understood this word "FUN" means?!!...losing is fun?...playing like shit is fun?!...to share the same obsessions with ur mates is not fun?!! bieng for couple of hours a part of a winning team even with strangers is not fun?!!

Playing a good match could make my whole week, sometimes for the whole month. maybe these soccer matches r the only indication for me to know my state of mind in this cold city , is the best indication for a rabbit like me wating for the winter to end. a soccer match is like a microchip device of everything u can find in this life.Having a bad luck , finding harmony with others , facing the truth as it is if u sucked , or played the best two hours ever, it's the most amusing test u will go through in ur life.

In my first day with them at the Sporting Center of Antonio Machado , i scored 4 goals in 4 matches ( i am talking like a NBA commentator now) they even called me
"El Crack" (that means the big star), and to hear that from a brazlilian soccer players this like winning a little oscar. this weekend i sucked , and everybody wondered "what's wrong with u?", and my friend Roberto Wagner answered for me "nothing , he is in youm na7sooh!!". there is nothing like having a bad day in a soccer match.
