When fans counter attack.

I caught this on Fox Soccer Report the other night. Usually clips like these are only meant for a quick laugh and we forget about it, but this guy made actual headlines. I found the article on Reuters UK. Things must be pretty bad for the Indonesian National Team if a fan invades the pitch mocks the team and is now being labled a hero.

Togo Team Attacked

The club managers in Europe (especially in England) have already been complaining about the African Cup of Nations, but today's events surely add fuel to the fire. The Togo national soccer team was attacked by gunmen in Angola a few days ahead of their opening match against Ghana. The bus driver was killed and at least nine others were injured.

For those of you wondering how this may effect this summer's World Cup, you can read Steve Zakuani's reaction here.

And since we're on the topic of violence surrounding football, check out this article from Mexico. I wouldn't want to play with that ball!

The Mexican Lottery?

I have no idea what this is about...other than a Mexican lottery game. Oh Danny Boy, please translate!


UPDATE - Someone was kind enough to translate this for me...no thanks to ODB.
Caption - Mexican Frontier 7:30am
COP: Stop right there.
LD: I am Mexican.
COP: Of course not, you're Landon Donovan!
LD: Awwh.
COP: What are you doing over here?
LD: It's just that it's winning in Mexico is easier.
COP: WHAT?!?
LD: No, no, no! I'm talking about GanaGol.
COP: GanaGol???
LD: GanaGol - the new game where it's easier to win because there are only 12 games.
COP: Well, it'll be easier for ME...not for you!
LD: [Sighs]
COP: So go back home. NOW! LET'S GO!
LD: [Walking Away] CULEEEEEEERO!

Heads Up

Behind The Scenes - Blind Keepie Uppie

Last week Oh Danny Boy brought you the original video, and now I'm dropping the behind the scenes on ya.

Blindfold Juggling

How to play keep away, by Marouane Chamakh and Matthieu Chalme

Jens Lehmann: When Nature calls

I kept hearing about this and finally got around to look it up. Here's a clip of what looks like Lehmann taking a quick wiz. Looks like he was done just in time as the opposing team came on the offensive. How funny would it have been if Stuttgart got scored against on an empty net.

The Guidos have invaded.

Surprised Sterlinho hasn't mentioned this since he's all about the Jersey Shore. I have to admit, I've been watching this show. It's like watching a train wreck, I can't believe these guys exist. America... Why?

The Freak Out

This is by far the biggest freak out I have ever seen. This kid has major issues and will seriously have to skip town.

What the?!

I know Florida State isn't having the best of season's, but this guy has literally given up! Well, at least he's showing up for the games.

Too Far?

What really interests me is how crazy some parents get with the big hit. This is why I think most football parents are bone heads. It's a great hit, but seriously uncalled for with how amped the parents get. MAJOR D BAGS.

The 2 second goal.

This has to be a record.

Chick Fights

Last week, I showed everybody at work the female Vinnie Jones, Elizabeth Lambert. So today, a co-worker emailed me this video from Rhode Island. I think the whole women's soccer world is PMSing right now.

Columbus, Ohio: More Than Just The Crew

Since the Crew took an early exit from the Playoffs, we feel the need to give you news from Columbus, Ohio based Limited Brands.

The Worst FIFA Trailer Ever?

Now, this isn't my style of music at all so it makes me a bit biased. But why drop this after Halloween when you have skeletons knocking around skulls? Let's go to EA for the answer:

Cut to the awesome Ladytron remix of Skeleton Dance by Children Collide now available exclusively with EA SPORTS™ FIFA 10 on PlayStation® here's a special remix video created in true Skeleton Dance style. Check out the action now, with a first look at this hot new clip! For more info visit FIFA.EASPORTS.com

Ok, it makes sense now. This crap is on PlayStation®!

Ronaldo and Bar-B-Q's?

According to this article, CR9 is teaming up with Michael Jackson's dad to sell soccer based Bar-B-Q's for next summer's World Cup. Dude, I understand you want to conquer America, but I'm just not sure who's going to buy a Bar-B-Q that's endorsed by a guy that carries a man bag.

The Buehldozer?

I don't keep up with women's soccer, but the thing that impresses me the most about this clip, is the fact that there is great fan support in this stadium. Who knew you could fill the stands at a women's game with out the majority of the people being pre-teen girls?

What the?

I've seen drunk, this looks like a dude on some hardcore ish. The part that cracks me up is the the slow motion fall with the bowl of condiments. Anyway, don't be tool and drink responsibly.

What the??????

Man, I don't really know what to think... I had to share it though. I can't imagine a kids show like this being allowed now a days. Still pretty funny.
