\"\"As the saying goes “Football is Life.” Nothing feels more true each year than the glorious day that is FANATIC<\/a>, adidas’ global small side football tournament at Pier 5 in Brooklyn. TheGoodLife! FC impatiently waits all year for it, obsessing over kit design, roster selection, and desired results. Then, like a flash, FANATIC is over, with another year in the way of the next one. TheGoodLife! FC is proud to say that this year was quite possibly the most fun yet! The combination of cool weather and even light on the Brooklyn waterfront was literally perfect, our kits were pure fire<\/a>, and our squad both on and off the pitch was extra official. We made it through to the Quarterfinals with some impressive victories along the way and were only stopped by the eventual champions, The Smile, who have become our defacto rival in the tournament. What a day! Scroll down for mad looks at the action by Coach Craig<\/a> featuring Captain Timbo<\/a>, Leo<\/a>, Lais<\/a>, Dids<\/a>, Libero<\/a>, Conectao<\/a>, Status<\/a>, and Soccer Sam<\/a> plus an assorted cast of characters from TheGoodLife! Fam! See you next year!<\/p>\n
