Manchester United – Robin van Persie & Chicharito Give Alex Ferguson an Exciting Send Off
Posted on 20 May, 2013, by Peter in SoccerWhat’s a better way to go? A dull 0-0 or another 1/2-0 win by Manchester United that bores the life out of neutral viewers, or an exciting 5-5 draw, that did see his team drop a three goal lead and for the first time in his life not get angry about something like that. Alex Ferguson had his farewell for the club, the league and the game, while Robin van Persie and Javier Hernandez tried to show there’s a future to be optimistic about, even without Wayne Rooney.

Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres Keeps Surprising All His Critics
Posted on 20 May, 2013, by Riven in SoccerWas everyone wrong? Is Fernando Torres not just going to stay at Chelsea, but actually deserving to stay at the club?

Arsenal FC – Laurent Koscielny Proving Again How Important He Is
Posted on 20 May, 2013, by Peter in SoccerFor two consecutive seasons, Laurent Koscielny has proved to be the difference between Arsenal finishing in the top 4 and making the Champions League, and an end result that would have been disastrous for the club, and probably for Arsene Wenger as well.

Posted on 19 May, 2013, by Peter in SoccerThere was only one thing at stake on the final day of the Premier League season – the identity of the fourth team that joins Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea in the Champions League next season.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic Just Keeps Winning Championships
Posted on 19 May, 2013, by Peter in SoccerNo one steals the spotlight from Zlatan. I’m sure there’s a quote like that hiding somewhere in the vaults of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. So while everyone was concentrated on David Beckham playing his last professional match, Ibrahimovic reminded everyone who is the best player for Paris Saint-Germain, and who is the main reason they won their first league title in 19 years. How? By scoring twice, including one of the best free kick goals you’ll see all season. More
Cristiano Ronaldo Ends the Season Like Only He Can
Posted on 19 May, 2013, by Peter in SoccerThe most incredible thing about the disastrous finish Real Madrid & Cristiano Ronaldo had? The red card the Portuguese star received in the Cup Final was of the kind only supreme athletes can get. Few players have the ability to be fouled from behind, do a reverse half somersault while falling on their backs and still manage to be quick enough in body and mind to try and kick the head of an opposing player.

Posted on 19 May, 2013, by Riven in SoccerAfter a brilliant season for Ajax, winning his third consecutive Dutch Eredivisie title, everyone seems convinced Christian Eriksen has played his final match for the team. With his contract running out in 2014, it’s time for the club to cash in on him now, and for him to spread his wings. Liverpool and Dortmund are the two most interested parties, but stalling for some reason, which is giving Eriksen a chance to have second thoughts. More

Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders in Swimsuit Calendar Photoshoot
While the Dallas Cowboys are no longer the force they used to be in the NFL, the allure and prestige of being a Cowboys cheerleader is still a thing to envy for some girls (and maybe even boys), and is generally a pleasing thing to see when the ladies join forces to create a swimsuit calender, posing in bikinis on the Mexican island of Cozumel.
