My dad sports: tennis and soccer

 My dad always had tennis racquet around. I never saw him play (maybe once) when I was in early elementary. His tennis racquet were Wilson Pro Staffs, hammer, mostly Wilson. He bought me and my brother Donnay when we were junior. My brother played tennis better when we were little, he was stronger because older. I played tennis in high school with one of his racquet, Pro Staff Ultra 95 tapered beam. Beside tennis, he also played soccer, a goalkeeper. When I was in junior high, saw him played as striker and scored a very good goal, faking and rounding a goalkeeper. His soccer shoes were copa mundial size 7.5 which I used in 9th and 10th grade before they got stolen. I remember when I asked for the copa, he said not the la plata shoes. The la plata shoes were there but in a bad condition with soles about to break to pieces. I should have save the laplata shoes.
