Write The Future
With the World Cup less than a month away, the global hype is starting to peak. Check out this amazing commercial by Nike Football featuring all the big dogs playing on their national teams: Drogba, Rooney, Ribery, Fabregas, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo. If you’ve never watched a soccer match before, I suggest you tune in this Saturday for the Champions League Final – it’s pretty much the Superbowl for club soccer if only the NFL were an international affair and had a ton more money to pay for players (soccer players make bank, it’s crazy). So it’s a pretty big deal. Bayern Munich takes on Internazionale de Milan in Madrid – kick-off on the West Coast is 11:45am. Apprently it’s even going to be shown on FOX so everyone will get the game. Brunch and soccer. How can you pass that up?
Or instead of watching the game you can listen to Gilles Peterson’s World Cup Special mix for BBC Radio 1 where he has masterfully assembled 40 songs representing the 40 nations invited to the World Cup. Download the show here; it’s quite a treat.

Makes me we want to watch soccer tomorrow (well, maybe) and is that Jethro Tull (sp?) I hear in the background?

I saw this the other day, So awesome! I thought Wayne Rooney suited the rugged look living a caravan life.. The whole thing was pieced together so well.

Ya the beard was a good look for ol’ Rooney. Maybe he should start growing one for good luck through the World Cup like hockey players do in the playoffs. Hopefully his ankle holds up.
