The magic of the FA Cup! Adebayo Akinfenwa, widely known as the biggest man in soccer, is a forward for AFC Wimbledon. He weighs 16 stone, or around 225 pounds and scores goals. He just scored against his favorite team Liverpool and tied it up before halftime in the FA Cup 3rd round.
That got the Twitterverse to explode:
Fuckinfenwa! 1-1.

We'll pay half the transfer for any MLS team that signs Akinfenwa. We'll get a Kickstarter if we have to do. #please

As noted soccer fan Bill Raftery would say: SEND IT IN ADEBAYO! @RobStoneONFOX
