Luis Suarez’s “Leap Of Faith” Goal Celebration (Video)
When it comes to goal celebrations at the FIFA World Cup in South Africa, this weekend was not a friendly one for cameramen. While most have been talking about Gabriel Heinze’s reaction to a rather painful close-up following Argentina’s second goal during Sunday’s round of 16 match against Mexico, Luis Suarez’s “leap of faith” celebration [...]

This Has To Be The Sexiest Soccer Game Ever!
Ten scantily clad bombshells, one muddy pitch, and one soccer ball. Those were all the ingredients required to create what should be considered one of the most entertaining soccer matches ever!

Argentina’s Gabriel Heinze Slaps Cameraman (GIF)

Picture Of The Day – Patriotism
Want to know what it takes to be a true patriot? Find a “Where’s Waldo?” body suit, one that covers you entirely like the Green Man costume from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, (poke some holes in it so you can see, but screw breathing). To top it all off, drape an enormous American flag [...]

England Got Trolled
FIFA: Players, coaches and referees all make mistakes. It’s part of the game. It’s what I would call the “first match”. What you see after the fact on video simply doesn’t come into it; that’s the “second match”, if you like. Video evidence is useful for disciplinary sanctions, but that’s all. As we’ve always emphasised [...]

What’s The Score Officer?
With many of the world’s leading politicians set to touch down in Toronto this week for the G20 Summit, police in the downtown area were out on their horses looking for any suspicious activity.

Picture Of The Day: They’ll Do Anything To Stop Lionel Messi
How do you slow down Lionel Messi? Nigeria and South Korea tried just about everything in their power, from vicious slide tackles, to grabbing his jersey, but their efforts were largely unsuccessful as the man they call “The Flea” has terrorized defenses through the opening round of the 2010 FIFA World Cup. However, on Tuesday [...]

Hyundai Creates The World’s Largest Vuvuzela…a.k.a. World’s Biggest Nuisance
Does it get any more annoying that the sound of thousands of vuvuzelas buzzing throughout the entirety of a soccer match? Yes, it does, thanks to Hyundai and their creation of the world’s largest vuvuzela. The sound of this 114-foot giant horn could likely be heard within a 3 mile radius , subjecting all of [...]

Not So Fast ESPN! USA Has Some Final-Minute Magic
For all of those Americans who have described soccer as a boring, slow, and uneventful sport, Wednesday, June 23, 2010 may forever be known as the day that changed their minds.

French Coach Raymond Domenech Refuses To Shake Hands On His Way Out Of The World Cup
There should be no disputing the fact that France have clearly been the “losers” of the 2010 World Cup thus far, but following the post-game antics of coach Raymond Domenech after a 2-1 loss to South Africa (which eliminated them from the tournament), their label will undoubtedly change from just “losers” to “sore losers”. As [...]

Picture Of The Day – She Also Has Good Ball Handling Skills
Cristiano Ronaldo may have recently ended his two-year soccer goal scoring drought, but there is no way he’s in a slump with the ladies, right? How could he possibly be in a lady-scoring drought when they literally throw their looseness his way every day and night? Maybe he made this ball handler prove her sign’s [...]

Americans Think The World Cup Is Boring (Comic)
Cletus, grabbing some really cheap beers from the fridge: “Hey, what’s going on in the race?” Verne, watching from a lawn chair…in the living room: “You’re not going to believe this — they just went around the track…again!” Cletus: “No way!” Verne: “Way!!” Cletus: “Whooo Verne, it just keeps getting better!” Verne: Ah know! One [...]
