Crazy Penalty Kick
Gravity is a real bitch sometimes.
How to Celebrate a Goal
After decades of flopping, a soccer team puts the move to good use.
Four Stunning Optical Illusions
If you watched today’s England vs. Germany game, this makes perfect sense.
I’ve seen way too many blown calls in the past few weeks to ever take soccer serious. Some teams have had 4 years of hard work thrown out because FIFA wants to keep things “old school”.
Soccer: Greatest Sport in the World?
Personally I would have to say no, but there is definitely a reason it’s the most popular sport on the planet. This video gives us an amazing look at the history, passion, and energy of the game.
World Cup 2010!!!
Goalie “Intimidates,” Fails to do His Job
The odds are obviously stacked against the goalie, but that doesn’t keep him from getting his juices flowing. After a series of “intimidating cartwheels,” the goalie fails to do his job. Nothing is more rewarding than mocking your opponent after you defeat them.
Falcoa Futsal Madness
Alessandro Rosa Vieira, known as Falcão, is a Brazilian football and futsal player. Futsal is a form on indoor soccer but it’s 4 vs. 4 and the goals and field are much smaller. The game showcases players footskills and allows players to showoff quite a bit. Falcão is one of the most famous Futsal players in the world and you can see why from this video. Mad footskills.
Ginger Child Smears Ice Cream on Face
This video was taken during the Italy vs. Brazil soccer match earlier this week. Why? Because that’s what gingers do. Shouts to JB Felony for the link.
Cristiano Ronaldo vs Billy Wingrove
A little kick-up contest between CR7 and Billy Wingrove. Looks like Wingrow’s footskills are a bit more refined than Ronaldo’s. Will we see a lot more of this on the pitch when Ronaldo and Kaka are dribbling their way past defences??
Christiano Ronaldo // “The Best Goal of My Career”
Ronaldo’s sixth-minute goal, a stunning right-footed strike from 40 yards, was enough to seal a 3-2 quarter-final aggregate win and confirm an all-Premier League last-four meeting with Arsenal. With Chelsea also through after defeating Liverpool, it means that for the third season in a row, three of the four semi-finalists are English.
Why Soccer Fans Are The Best Fans In The World
Can you imagine what it would be like if this happened at a Cavs game? What about a Lakers game? All the A/B/C/D list celebs who paid thousands of dollars for their seats going crazy when their team’s song came on. I can’t even comprehend how Kobe and LeBron would react to that type of energy on their home court.
Wishful thinking, I know.
What Soccer Practice Really Looks Like
It’s the Christiano Ronaldo effect.
Lil’ Wayne Is Blogging For ESPN
You heard it here first (maybe not, he’s been blogging for almost 2 months). Lil’ Wayne now has a blog over at ESPN where he talks about, big surprise, sports. The content is surprisingly enjoyable as he covers just about everything. You might remember his song on Dedication 2 where he talks ESPN for about a minute at the beginning of the song. It’s hilarious so give it a listen.
Lil’ Wayne on Soccer:
I was watching Manchester United play soccer against Villareal yesterday and man, Cristiano Ronaldo gets picked on a lot. But he stood up to them yesterday, and I respect that. My favorite player is Ronaldinho, though. He makes the game look effortless. He makes it possible for a person who doesn’t know the game to instantly know it just by watching him. A lot of Americans don’t really watch soccer, which is a shame, because it’s really exciting and once you get into it it’s pretty easy to stay with it.
Lil’ Wayne on Terrell Owens:
Poor Dallas. And poor T.O. He’s gonna quit. He takes a loss differently than anyone on that team. I think he has nightmares about losing or something, because he looks like he’s about to cry after every game they lose. You see him over there on the sidelines sitting by himself just pouting like a little kid.
Lil’ Wayne on blogging:
First of all, wow. I am overwhelmed by the response to my first blog entry. I think I read the first 402 comments. A lot of them were crazy. A thousand comments in the first day? That makes me happy. I’ve been telling people, “Man I got a blog on ESPN,” and they go, “Yeah, boy, but you’re latest song is crazy!” and I’m like, “I know, but did you see my blog?” I am so excited to have this opportunity. You don’t understand. I got ESPN tattooed on my arm. I’ve had it for at least three months now, so that should show you how seriously I’m gonna take this.
Props to Rob for the find.
Columbus Crew 2008 MLS Champs!
Columbus had entered the MLS Cup final as resounding favorites. The Crew proved Sunday at the Home Depot Center that they are without a doubt the best team in MLS with a 3-1 win over the Red Bulls. Guillermo Barros Schelotto set an MLS Cup record with 3 assists.
Christiano Ronaldo
I haven’t posted anything soccer related in a while so check out this 5 minute mix (with crazy techno in the background) of the sickest player on the planet, Christiano Ronaldo. Kilt em!
ESPN Best of 2008 Clip
This was jacked from the 2008 ESPYs.
Drunk Referee
I don’t really know much about this video. Apparently this guy appeared to be trashed shortly after the 2nd half of a soccer game. Trainers attempt to escort him off the field. Once he finally leaves he is greeted with cheers from the crowd.
We got more bounce in Columbus.
