Football Story, Three

Back to the training…. I tell the Coach that I want to be a kicker…Now he’s the one who is laughing…Come one guys…What’s that funny…. I want to try…Give me a chance... Bal tells me that if I can defeat the actual kicker in a competition I can take his position…Unless I do that…I will carry the water for the whole team for one year…

At least I try…He is an enormous man with muscles and I a fly near him….So I am ready to carry the water for the rest of the year… I am sure that I have no chance! But for not looking like a girl I accept.

Football Story, One

After that period when I run and I do a lot of exercises like that; you know for strength and cardio we finally start to play…YASSS! We won’t run anymore.....We are playing…Yep! This hell is finally over. BYE! I am going to miss you! OR not…

Football Story, Two

And the happiness doesn’t lasts long....I am dressing the equipment….I look in the mirror...That imagine took my breath away…I am looking like a monkey, man! Maybe I should get a selfie stick. I will not get out like that! I never wore the complete equipment…. I and I shouldn’t do that ever again…I tell this to the other players…They all are laughing! “You are like a girl” ”Ohh Look I forgot my lipstick now I will die” So I get in the ground…you know just to demonstrate them that I am not a girl…I am a MAN; a true ALPHA!! I will show them who the girls are?!

First football practice..

So I am dressing with the equipment and I am ready to meet the coach and my team mates…As soon as I get in the ground the coach starts to yell. I will remember this sentence for the rest of my life. He said “Tell me your names…then start with 20 laps”. What? From the first training day….20 laps… I think I will die till I finish them…. I don’t run, or do anything like that…how you expect me to do them… Take it easy! And that is true…I almost died…It takes like 1h to make them. Well I do them in 2h and he stands there yelling at me “faster, faster“ for 2 h…

Me and Jonny…we are the slow ones…Our mates…well they finished it in time. So now…. I am going home you know, there I can yell without people considering me crazy.

Why do I need sports? I can make money with other jobs too…. Maybe more money… Like in math 2 lines can be parallel, right?! So I am, with the sports…Totally parallel… Because of Football now I hate Fridays….Why? Because I have 3 hours training on Fridays…I don’t know....Why it takes that much. Funny don’t you think! I hated sports and now I am the captain of the team. Let me tell you how this happened.

How I got into football...

I chose the subjects that I will study…Beside them I have to choose a sport too. What? A sport? I am not good at any sports….This will be horrible….. I decide to draw lots…So Football; that’s the choice…. How bad can it be? Everyone is playing this game here…

If I was able to see it with this shitty stream, then the ref should’ve seen it, too.

Why Baljess??

How does it start and who is THAT one person who make me to love football? BalJess….Funny story… BAL is actually the name of my coach. Why I put him that nickname. Because he’s always like “Jessie Von Brahim, hit the ball” He always calls me with my whole name….I don’t know why… Maybe he likes it…whatever…

BalJess the combination between our nicknames…the perfect blog name…He’s a good man…He is my inspiration the man that made me love football… So I kind of dedicate this blog’s name to him… You know he’s that kind of man who never gives up…He never gives up on his players… Even he yells…like a lot of yelling....on every training…he’s the perfect coach for me…First I thought that he hates me but now I think that  actually “loves” me…I think that he acts that rough with me just  to make me a better player…And he’s right…
