Comments 4 and ego please

[EnglishBeef]

Just wondering when you guys are out and about doing normal everyday things, what comments do you get from the "little people" children, granmothers, mothers, dad's etc.

I had a cracker the other week off a little kid,

He walked past me with his mum (very nice) his eyes went wide open along with his mouth and he said "wow"

Trained really hard that night!

I was playing recreational league indoor soccer tonight... I'm not big by any means - 5'8 and 177 pounds - yet other players were just bouncing off me.

When I eat three plates of pasta, my Italian grandmother is just as happy as she would be if I gave her a great grandson.

Neither of those beat "wow" though. That's pretty sweet.

lol.....sure you were playing football (or soccer) if you wish and not rugby....bouncing off you now thats cool

 

[Zander1983]

Not even in my wildest dreams could I think about playing rugby and having people bounch off me

 

[EnglishBeef]

Oh well, being a Aussie, i thought rugby might have been your thing....lets face it football isn't exactly your national sport is it...btw what is cricket?

 

[Zander1983]

In my state rugby is virtually non-existent. I grew up on Australian rules football and only started playing 'soccer' later on. Shame really, because I've taken to it like a duck to water and could've actually been okay at a decent level, unlike Aussie rules where I was quite disgraceful. Anyway, back on topic...

It's your national sport

Parents are telling me to stop working out because I'm getting too bulky. They even said 'workout you're legs, they're getting blocky' thinking that working them out would shrink them. Friends saying I'm getting broader. And I sorta get more attention from pedestrians.

i had a good one the other day. i wrestled in high school. i was the captain my sr year. i wrestled the 145lb class at the height of 5'10 that year. there was a guy who wrestled in the 140lbs he was like 5'7 and always a lot bigger and stronger than me. well it has been 4 years to the month when i graduated. i was in the gym the other day and he walked in screaming and cursing from across the room talking about how big i was. he want to know what i was taking, eating.....etc etc. he couldnt belive it. while he had quit working out and was down to about 125lbs give or take 5 lbs. while me, i am up to 260lbs at the same height.

i pushed a little harder the rest of the workout.
