What exercises help you stay fit enough to be able to comfortably play football? When my uncle used to play, he swore by deadlifts. 
deadlifts work but thats not all  pushing heavy weight cn work too, helps you build strenght 
True, the core strength helps a lot. Do you just use football for exercise, or have you played in high school or college?
i played in high school and for fun but i did not play in college 
What's Okalnd like? I've always been interested in the strong focus on culture and art that they have there.

Oh, yeah. It'd be a great place to visit with my partner. I'd love to be able to see the view from the Potomac. What food would you recommend for visitors of Oakland?
