Rooney's a hack. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

Well, there are OTHER Forums for folks similar to you with this particular problem!

It was a great shot though!

C'Mon Gapper!

You can't even compare the two players.

Rooney is 4 yrs younger, 9" shorter, and has much less hair!

OK - nice, very similar shots though!

So much more difficult for the big man to perform such acrobatics. Taylor Twellman scored one like this for New England in the playoffs a couple seasons back. Crouch is the yoda and Rooney the young jedi in this instance. And in scoring for England. And these goals were scored when Crouch was younger. He had one like this for Portsmouth last year before his move to Tottenham. And he scored some others like this as well. Plus, his robot dance is tops.
