Team Great Britain fielded a soccer team at the 2012 London Olympics for the first time since 1972 in honor of the capital city hosting the games. It was an interesting experiment in the modern era of world soccer, but it was also a messy affair. All but five players came from England, and the […]

Before getting into last Saturday’s game, let’s talk about Yankee Stadium in general. Many […]

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.

A very familiar theme is developing for this version of the United States men’s national team — score first, hunker down…make a mental mistake and give up a road lead in Europe.

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 […]

Gareth Bale and spectacular goals are nothing new. Hitting a strike so perfect the goalkeeper just stands and watches it? That’s exactly what Bale did in Wales’ qualifier against Isreal on Saturday.
