Friðbjörn Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 anyone play or follow handball here? or just if you've heard of it, cause I doubt many here have. it's a sport played on a field about the size of a basketball court, and it's similar to football/soccer except you play with your hands. and right now the world championship is on full tilt in germany. first round is over, second group stage starts this week. and iceland demolished france 32-24 after 18-8 at the half and qualified for the next round :D:D:D everyone's mad celebrating right now lol Quote [broken External Image]:http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2784/lpfas08mostintelligentym8.jpg

Clogz Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 We played it for one week in gym class where I live. It was one of the best weeks I had in gym class. Not only was that game fun, but I turned out to be a damn good goalie. I got maybe ten points scored on me in one game...each time. I do remember the bruises on my palms though. They weren't fun. Quote And then I felt chills in my bones / The breath I saw was not my own I knew my skin that wrapped my frame / Wasn't made to play this game XXI

Jeezy Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I think I never realy played it...but I watch it on TV sometimes...mostly if the German team plays.. Quote
shirakawa_otori Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 Back when I was in high school, a lot of my classmates played on local teams. I'd say it's a pretty popular sport here - not as popular as football, of course, but still pretty widely known and practiced.

Black_Angel Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I think I was forced to play it in PE once... it was alright, for a change, but it hurt your hands after a while haha. Quote i still love you, girl from mars.
Sygy Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I love handball! but i had no idea there was actually a championship for it. Too bad i dont have a sports channel. Volleyball, rocks too, but i cant play it well i find that my chest often gets in the way of doing a dig.

emrawkgrrl Posted January 23, 2007 Posted January 23, 2007 I sorta read about this, I heard England beat a couple of teams then lost to Ukraine or something lol Quote http://www.sucksbbs.net/data/MetaMirrorCache/40523c98328ead9ea4a73bad1e81ab7c.png Linkin Park: 22/11/03 Wembley | 05/06/04 Donnington | 03/05/07 Astoria Fort Minor: 23/08/05 Shepherds Bush | 14/11/05 Mean Fiddler
LPShinodaFM Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 yeah it's really fun and it's definately easier than volleyball...lol The rules are so simple too! Well, at least when you're playing it. There's only like what, the 3-steps rule? Quote
DarknessLover Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 No offense to those who like it, but I don't like Handball all that much, my school is to strict on the 3-step rule Quote The Park is Back? No way!
Stllmn8j Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 We played that in gym class twice,we decided to change to Speedball,which is Soccer,Football,Handball,And Basketball combined. Lots of contact in that game,makes it a lot more fun with less strict rules 1 Quote
LPShinodaFM Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 lol, i think handball is fun because it does not require as much skill and it's very easy to play... you just take the ball by the hand, no dribbling, no volleying, no racquet, nothing like that. You just take the ball, take three steps, and pass or shoot (Of course you can dribble, but hardly anyone does that... ) Quote
Friðbjörn Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 well actually handball has all kinds of rules. no more than 3 steps, except on fastbreaks can't hold the ball in your hands more than twice obviously can't step in to the penalty zone, or I dunno quite what you'd call it exactly then there's more btw 2nd group stage of the world championship starts today. I think Our Boys are playin Tunisia Quote [broken External Image]:http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2784/lpfas08mostintelligentym8.jpg

Friðbjörn Posted January 28, 2007 Author Posted January 28, 2007 lol that game didn't matter, really. both teams had qualified. germans did play way better though. if iceland hadn't sucked in the beginning (they let the best guys get some rest), maybe they wouldn't have lost that big...or maybe drawn germany's not unbeatable, but they did win france, and not everyone does that. and now we gotta wait for the results in the last games to see how plays who in the quarter final the audience was really harsh on Logi today...jesus he hit Zeitz accidentally on the face...come on Quote [broken External Image]:http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2784/lpfas08mostintelligentym8.jpg
