This past Saturday, I was in Yankee Stadium for NYCFC’s game against Sporting Kansas City. This was their second home game and well, let’s just say it’s going to take some time for the newer fans to adapt to the game. Before getting into last Saturday’s game, let’s talk about Yankee Stadium in general. Many […]

This is all I have been doing most of the day, playing Pac-Man via Google Maps. Google likes to do different things for April Fools Day and they have struck again giving us this addictive activity that’s sure to cost many businesses productivity hours today. If you’re anything like me, you have been googling some […]

Footy Headlines is back at it with their latest kit leaks. It’s been a while but they are back with what is supposedly Manchester City’s home and away kits. The home kit enlists the standard light blue home like their other kits. The away kit…yikes! I get that “Blue Moon” is Manchester City’s anthem and […]

According to the Daily Mail, Frank Lampard is looking at renting a 9,000 square foot New York City apartment that will cost $95,000 per month in rent. That part of the story isn’t shocking. Frank Lampard is a world class, internationally recognized soccer player, he is making millions playing for NYCFC and housing in Manhattan […]

Look at this cute little beagle. This beagle plays goalkeeper and I have to admit, this pup is better than some human goalkeepers. After a bit of a rough start at first, “Purin the Super Beagle” got its head in the game and blocked every shot but one. I’m pretty sure that after some lackluster […]

Sure enough, they gained promotion and Alejandra fulfilled her promise. Don’t worry, these pics on here are SFW: I mean, no one could question her […]

With only eight games left in the EPL season (well Leicester City has nine but that extra game is against chelsea so may as well say eight), it’s coming down to the wire in terms of who will get relegated to the Championship next season. The bottom three EPL teams relegate and if history is […]

79 seconds. It only took 79 seconds for Harry Kane to score in his England debut. Kane was left on the bench for some reason by Roy Hodgson but once got subbed on in the 72nd minute, he wasted no time in scoring as he powered in a header from Raheem Sterling on his first […]

Some scary scenes in Montenegro as Russia’s goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev was struck in the back of the head by a flare thrown by a fan in the first minute of a Euro 2016 qualifier. Akinfeev was knocked out eight seconds in and had to be subbed out for Juri Lodygin. The game was delayed by […]

With WrestleMania coming up this Sunday, it seems that people from outside the WWE are getting ready. Recently, a Brazilian player clotheslined a referee to respond to an apparent non PK call during a game. If you don’t know what a clothesline is, it is a move where one person extends their arm straight out […]

The Championship is the league below the English Premier League and there is a serious battle to see who promotes to the EPL. Right now, the top eight have a realistic shot to promote and we only have eight games left to decide who goes to the top division. This is going to come down […]

FIFA, or the FIFA World Cup Twitter account, tweeted full time scores of CONCACAF World Cup Qualifiers from Monday night. This isn’t that big of a deal, it’s a pretty normal thing to report full time scores. What was strange was that whoever was running @FIFAWorldCup, the official FIFA World Cup Twitter account, tweeted full […]

Because I feel like depressing myself and everybody else today, current French enemy Zlatan Ibrahimovic took good care of his soccer ball by giving it a first class airplane seat on the flight back to his native Sweden. Ibrahimovic scored his first Ligue 1 hat trick against Lorient and received the ball from the game. […]

Luis Suarez cannot make this goal look any easier. Suarez only had to touch the ball twice in order to get the game leading goal in El Clasico. Both touches were simple, precise, clinical and looked incredibly easy when we all know that it’s far from. Suarez has been playing more of a supporting role […]

El Clasico has had a start, stop, start, stop flow to things. One teams seems to have the advantage at first, then the other team takes over and then back again. Barcelona drew first blood by one of the more unlikely players in the game. Jeremy Mathieu, the center back for Barcelona drove through and […]
