Pete, i never said that soccer wasn't a big participation sport before the inception of the a-league, but EVEN MORE kids are playing it now. True?

I read it as more along the lines of you saying "suddenly it has a lot of participation and that's because money was spent at the top level".

I was merely pointing out that it's always had a huge level of participation but that yes, it probably has even more now due to the recent success of our national team.

That is of course, awesome.


P.S. I so wanna grow a porno moustache now :P

anyone see the BMX final, now that is a fast and entertaining sport, loved every minute of it both men and women

unlucky for Greaves of Australia, got taken out on the second last bend when sitting in third place
