Look this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rom%C3%A1rio
Romário, a soccer player (kinda famous) is trying to score 1000 goals in his career. And he is really close to doing that. If he scores 5 more times he will hit the 1000 goals mark.
Romário is 41 years old and last game (yesterday) he scored 3 times. He is actually playing in Vasco da Gama now, a Brazilian First Division team. Let's hope he continues to score so we have another brazilian player with 1000 goals in his career. I will start to go to every game now so I can see with my own eyes his goal number 1000. _________________

Its incredible how Baixinho as they call him, is still active and scoring. He never liked training very much and he was always from party to party and drinking too much, but god when it came to score he was the best... hell, he still is :*laugh*: _________________ The drunkest cavalry unit in the world.

Well, he IS little (hence, Baixinho),so it's not like "as they call him". He's it.
But yeah, 1000 goals for one of the first players I remember liking VERY much. _________________ Tinto: Kicking Asses is our Speciality

Hell, i always thought that Romario Da Souza Faria was his name and Baixinho his nick... good to learn before he retires... altough at this rate he will be 60 and be still playing...and scoring :*laugh*: _________________ The drunkest cavalry unit in the world.

Actually both of you guys are correct, he is little and his nickname is Baixinho. ;) Some people call him "peixe" too, because that's the way he call many people.
I don't know if he wiill retire after scoring 1000 goals... maybe not, he said he was going to retire some times before. Well I hope he still plays as long as he can play good, I mean if he is still scoring then he should continue playing. I don't wanna see Romario playing bad or something, he should retire while he is still good. _________________
