In the future, are girls more likely to be with an awesome football player, or an alcoholic with no real talents?
Don't give up your football honey. One day when you're famous playing for your country, I'll be in the stands screaming and shouting I TOLD THAT GUY NOT TO QUIT FOOTY! Lol :]

Just play the sport you love, just because your friends are into stupid behaviour doesnt mean you should do it.

I have a friend who's 20 now. He was heavily into boxing, and his coach told him he couldn't drink or anything when he was 10 because it would affect his game - and he's never drank that much or anything and he has no regrets at all, has excelled at his sports and is popular and stuff.
You shouldn't really be drinking or smoking at your age anyway, I know I did and a lot of people do, but your body hasn't fully developed yet so why damage it with alcohol and cigarettes?
If I were you I'd stick to your football. I'm sure you can go out with your friends sometimes - just not too much so it doesn't affect your play. =]
Hope this helps. x

Dont' Smoke, or drink to much :), i know i sound like everybody else. But dont start, if you have try to give up.
Surely you dont have football all the time? Theres a lot of time for you to see your friends. Dont give up your football. Why not bring you friends to football as well?
Hope this helps :)
