Have to buy the molded shin-guards.

I forgot about sports...
I cant have cheap cleats for Soccer.....playing in such a *cough* high level that I played in (U21 Premier
) cheap cleats just dont do it.....anything under 150 wont do you good for the season. Shinpads I dont much care about, I use the same ones I've used for 4 years, its sort of grown into a superstitious thing. I always wear the one thats cracked down the middle on my right leg.
And for hockey, I cant go cheap on anything. The mouthguards I buy are 20 bucks a piece, and I get a new one every so often, Sticks are about 100 bucks, I need new gloves soon, and those will be close to 120. When I bought my skates, they were 550.
Damn sports.
