Mine goes like this

My favourite footballer is Stuart Pearce (plays for nottingham forest -http://www.uglyfootballers.com/ugly_files/90s/s_pearce.html )

And I used to play Center Back as no 6 for my local team Bulwell Rangers...

For u yankees thats soccer :)

Not much of a story behind mine, the Cyclops isn't as interesting as one would think on a PE site, its from the X-Men, he's my favorite. And the #....well its a year, a obvious one at that :)

No funny story here either. It's just a nickname I recieved from a teacher once upon a long time ago. He couldn't remember my name and for some reason this popped into his head instead. The "00" part was added because I needed a little mindtrick to remember one of my old passwords. It's kind of stuck.

Isn't it Pearce who used to be called "Psycho"? I seem to remember him playing a national against Sweden with a bandage on his head that was literally soaked with blood...

he got some stick for missinga penalty against Germany in 1990 in world cup semi finals....

in 1996 there he is again, stepping up to take another penalty, true class that guy is :)

Nothing fancy here. My mother always called me Bud(maybe she couldn't remember my name:o ) and my wife's names is Pat Simple huh?
