| Okay.. the vast majority of you won't have a clue who I’m on about but here's the guys I enjoy watching.
Football/Soccer:
Ronhaldino (Barcelona & Brazil) - Anyone who watches football/soccer will tell you this is the most talented player in the world. He can make something out of nothing. I saw him play for Barca last season and I tell you what, he alone was worth the entrance fee to watch. Just watch his goal against Chelsea in last years Champions League final.
David Beckham (Real Madrid & England) - Say what you like about Beckham, but he's a damn good footballer, and one I liked ever since the start.
Diego Forlan (Villarreal & Uruguay) - For some reason I love this guy, it's probably his won't give up attitude. No matter how many times he misses shots on goal, he's always there to have another pop. So glad he's banging in the goals in Spain.
Rugby:
Johna Lomu (NZ & Wellington) - The guy was phenomenal at his peak, watching him just brush off 4 - 5 grown mean and sometimes dragging two others was a sight to behold.
Joe Rockocko (NZ & Auckland) - Had the pleasure of meeting this guy in person. He's a phenomenal try scorer, he's scored something like 27 tries in 24 games. I love watching him play.
Shane Williams (Wales & Ospreys) - This is the guy I modelled myself on while I was playing rugby. We both play in the same position, he's not physically built like other players (just like me) so by using speed and agility he more than makes up for it, which is what I learnt from him.
Chris Czekaj (Wales & Ospreys) - I get a real kick out of watching him play since he's the same age as me, and we used to be big rivals in the local schools teams. I always raised my game against him, and even though my team usually lost, I was normally our best player because I could cope so well with this kid... even to the point they moved him away from me. One time we even got into a scrap and I knocked him on his ass. He now plays professionally and got his first International match against Canada a few months ago... It could have been me! lol
NHL:
Mike Modano - The captain of my team the Dallas Stars, cant remember much about him since it's been ages since I watched hockey, but I was so glad when he re signed. Can't wait till the hockey season begins.
Travis Brigley - This guy plays for the Colorado Avalanche I think. Reason I like him is because he used to play for my local hockey team the Cardiff Devils, and I have my shirt signed by him! |
