This Should Spark Some Soccer Interest

First time here? Subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I am average soccer fan, whenever the World Cup is on I'll usually check it out and I've even seen a few MLS games.

One of the biggest things that got me into soccer wasn't the actual sport though, it's things like this and this that help to keep my love of the beautiful sport going.

So naturally when I run across videos like this one from World Star Hip Hop of banned hotties juggling (soccer) balls in scantily clad outfits, I'm all over it.

Preseason isn’t all bad

For the most part, preseason football is usually pretty boring.

With changes like Brett Favre to the Jets and Aaron Rodgers taking over in Green Bay, there has been a lot of buzz around this preseason though. Way moreso than usual.

There really hasn't been too much talk about a lot of other teams but here's a memorable play from this years preseason via the Cleveland Browns.

Browns WR Syndric Steptoe had two TD catches including this amazing one vs. the Giants.

Nike’s Olympic Basketball ad

Here is the new Nike ad promoting the Olympic basketball team. It features the late great Marvin Gaye and of course the USA basketball team.

There isn't really anything special about the clips of the USA players in the video but Marvin Gaye's performance of the National Anthem is what made me post this video. Enjoy!

The White Sox are sore losers

A fight broke out during the White Sox and Royals game over the weekend. Miguel Olivo charged the mound after D.J. Carrasco hit him with a pitch.

Carrasco threw the ball high and tight on him twice and finally got him with the second pitch. As Olivo charged the mound, A.J. Pierzynski did the loyal thing, trying to stop him from reaching the pitcher.

He paid for his loyalty by being one of the few guys that got hit in this fight.

Five players got ejected after the fake brawl in the Royals 14-3 win over the White Sox.

Dwayne Wade looks ok

So if your like me, you were questioning the decision to bring Dwayne Wade to the Olympics. His team just came off of a 15 win season and he has been hurt since the 2006 season and hasn't been the same since.

Ok maybe I was wrong.

During last nights game against Lithuania, D-Wade led the way with a game high 19 points and this ridiculous slam.

Now don't get too excited because they were playing Lithuania afterall but... I will get off his case, for now.

X Games 14: Danny Way takes a huge spill

X games can be dangerous. Everyone knows this. In order to even make it to the X-Games you pretty much have to have gone through your fair share of cuts and bruises but no one wants to see this.

This is a video of Danny Way falling a very long way... Looking very similar to this guy.

Jason Giambi has a one fingered message for Brian Roberts

During the Bottom of the sixth inning of last nights Yankees/Orioles games, Jason Giambi came up to the plate. The Orioles decided that it'd be a good idea to put the shift on. They basically bet the house that Jason would pull the ball into right field.

He did. Unfortunately for them, the ball just went over Brian Roberts' outstretched glove.

After that, Giambi let Roberts know exactly how he felt about the shift by flipping him the bird.
