He says "Footbag also known as hacky sack" way too many times on his website.
EDIT: This is Steve Blough "making it look easy"

EDIT EDIT: I wonder what'd happen if Blough's kid got into freestyle footbag. The danceman'd be pissed for sure.

Haha! Great idea, somebody lure his kid in.
Man that picture is VULGAR... Do all hacky sackers on footbag.com play wearing strings?

Those speedos make him look pretty flaming...
He deserves a punch in the stomach for his insipid interview and another one from my pain of reading it.

Lets be honest, wouldnt you say freestyle is more of a pastime than a sport?
Are you TRYING to get flamed? I mean come on.
Ya, that article was a joke. I laughed all the way through it. Nonsense.

ya really!!
This is NOT the place to cuss out freestyle footbag.... I respect net alot. Looks VERY hardcore, though I've never played. Check out
http://www.modified.ca/footbag/viewtopic.php?t=11112 .
I read the article on Blouchi a couple weeks ago. Steve Goldberg posted it on footbag.org... I couldn't even get through the whole thing. I really respect whoever said that they read through the whole thing laughing at it, completely ready to dissmis it as nonesense. Wich it is!!! There's NO WAY I'm saying it's not, but I couldn't help getting really mad and went off fuming about the damn thing to everyone I knew (<--none of whom knew what I was talking about). Everything that
really pissed me off has already been talked about... I hope that Steve Blougchi reads this.
Keep it real!!

freestyle and net are totally different, other than both being played with the feet there really are no similarities. Who cares what you call them, they're both fun.

Damn straight. Kevin and I played net for the first time earlier in the autumn.
