From Joe Cannon's humorus blog on the 'Quakes website:

"Beating the best team in MLS by four goals, along with a full moon created a weird night out at Buck Shaw. (We really should rename the new stadium when we play there...the house that Joe Cannon built sounds wonderful huh? Click to continue reading...

Allen Hopkins points out two things in this clip that really do make you think "WTF?". The first is how is LA not scoring of Becks corners? Is it that he's serving up weak-sauce, his teammates not knowing what to do with ass this good or have the league's other teams actually found a way to stop Goldenballs? Click to continue reading...

"We need to go in relaxsched, we need to go in with also belief." What? Steve McClaren's fake Dutch accent is on the go again. This guy is such a plonker. The accent is bad enough (there are loads of annoying people who accidentally imitate the accents of those they talk to), but to start rearranging your syntax. Click to continue reading...

Wrexham striker Jefferson Louis scores a lovely goal in his side's victory over Altrincham. He is substituted before the end and obliges the pitchside reporter with a frank analysis of why he came off. A little too frank for Setanta Sports' liking! This is the television gods punishing those who think it is acceptable to break away from the match to interview someone during the game. Click to continue reading...

Just look at Avia keeper Eduardo Martini frantically weighing up his options. He eventually settles on belting it as hard as he can, and I bet he is glad he did now. One of those bizarre kicks of the turf and a loop over the Parana keeper later, and Eduardo is a goalscoring hero. Click to continue reading...

Hay gente que me ha escrito para preguntarme acerca del tema de los comerciales. Voy a tratar de explicar algo de forma superficial que suele ser muy complejo y que los mercadólogos toman mucho en consideración para la medición en el éxito o fracaso de una campaña. En el caso del deporte, la cosa es [. Click to continue reading...

Damn, y'all. Kanye is just throwing out video's just for something to do. This week it's the all-anime clip for "Good Morning". Last week it was the puppet track-meet joint for "Champion". And the week before that it was the 8-bit wonder for his remix of N*E*R*D's "Everyone Nose". Next week it will be. Click to continue reading...

36 hours later I am still in a bit of shock after RBNY's take down of the Houston Dynamo. This unexpected display of competence and competitiveness just caught me so off guard that I had to ask myself "How well do I really know my team?" And I know I'm not alone for thinking it because I just stumbled across this clip of Steve Cangelosi taking the words right out of my mouth, asking Shep Messing "Who is this team?

Please keep EJ away from the microphones. Poor guy is most-likely jet-lagged to hell and probably knows less about his transfer from Fulham than you do...so does he really need to be answering your questions right now?

It's a little tough to watch, what with Eddie having problems remembering the name of the league he played in in America (hint: rhymes with "him hell yes") and stating that he's "scored quite some goals" for his country, but give it a shot since it's Monday and you really don't want to do whatever it is you are supposed to be doing.

David Beckham took time out from being criticised by journalists on both sides of the Atlantic to overhit a pass to a Chinese Olympic organiser. Becks took part in the handover section of the closing ceremony as part of the London 2012 team. He appeared with Leona Lewis and Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page. Click to continue reading...

Seeing how it's already all doom and gloom over at the Bayern Offside, following Bayern's unbeaten start into the season, I thought that our fellow Bayern fans need some cheering up. Though, they might also find comfort in randomly checking out one of the other team blogs, to see how the rest of the world [. Click to continue reading...

Soccer is great for some many reasons and one of them is the songs that the sport has produced. Chris Cohen is a song writer that writers soccer songs and here are some classics.

I think I would really love the chance to "kick it" with Allen Hopkins. He seems like an amiable & educated fellow like myself. I'd like to imagine that he and I could sit around a table over high-ball drinks and discuss the intricacies of MLS transfer guidelines, how Robin "Sweet Dick Willy" Harris died before his time, why Jeff Cunningham should have never left Ohio and our favorite social movements of the 60's & 70's.

David James, consider yourself bamboozled Like all England friendlies, last night's match against the Czech Republic, was depressing and pointless. At least Marek Jankulovski had the decency to light up proceedings with this moment of class. Thanks Marek.... Click to continue reading...

Timbo Howard and Duece Dempsey on the CONCACAF haters. But you know what they say, "if no one hates you then no one cares"...so it's nothing but nice to hear tales of vitriol and spite aimed at our boys. I guess when you are on top so it has to happen just to keep the world turning.

You know, someone should really cut a video of US soccer footage to that song by "Haters Everywhere We Go" by B.

In conjunction with Brazil getting done by Argentina today, here's a movie (23 minutes) of a Brazilian getting done wrong by some Argentines. Be advised there is some harsh, offensive language and hooligan-like behavior in Un Santo Para Telmo that I certainly am not endorsing. It's also worth noting that the protagonist in this story doesn't deserve the rough treatment as where the Brazilian team, with their lack of real bite in their performance this morning, where just asking for it.
