This video has to go down as one of the best soccer commercials ever.

Euro '08: Limited Edition Nike Boots  



Top secret info right here, I cant even show you the boots yet. But Nike has very limited edition versions of the Legend II, Laser II, and Vapor IV coming out for Euro 2008.

They retail for $25 more than normal, but come with a nice shoe bag (not the usual sackpack), a limited edition box (pictured), and some of the shoes are made out of a different material than usual. (Leather vapors perhaps?)
As I hear it, only 11 stores in the US got the rights to distribute them. I saw them yesterday and i think you guys are going to like them. They go on sale on June 8th. I'll try to post pics up before, so stay posted.
My guess is Cristiano, Ibra, Ruud and others will be rocking these during the tournament.
Soccer International is taking pre-orders so get on that list, 'cuz once they're gone...they're gone.

Why Not?  

5/17/08

Spain's controversial manager Luis Aragonés omitted Raul from the Euro squad this Saturday. And unfairly so if you ask me, the man has been performing and should've been picked. Although Spain has an excellent squad and should be very dangerous, his experience will be certainly missed.
Check out the talent on this team:

Keepers: Iker Casillas (Real Madrid), Pepe Reina (Liverpool) and Andrés Palop (Sevilla).

Defenders: Raúl Albiol (Valencia), Álvaro Arbeloa (Liverpool), Joan Capdevila (Villarreal), Juanito (Betis), Carlos Marchena (Valencia), Fernando Navarro (Mallorca), Carlos Puyol (Barcelona) and Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid).

Midfielders: Xabi Alonso (Liverpool), Santiago Cazorla (Villarreal), Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), Rúben de la Red (Getafe), Andrés Iniesta (Barcelona), Marcos Senna (Villarreal), David Silva (Valencia) and Xavi (Barcelona).

Forwards: Dani Güiza (Mallorca), Sergio García (Zaragoza), Fernando Torres (Liverpool) and David Villa (Valencia)

J Braun's first goal  

5/13/08


Sorry about the spanish commentary, but you should learn it and try to understand it anyway. Its a good skill to have.

Anyway...My boy Justin scored his first MLS goal this Sunday. Congrats kid. The goal is towards the end of the video. I love his reaction when the ball went in; you could tell he was stoked.
He played at SLCC, Olympique Montreux, Skyline High School, SIFC, and worked at Soccer International... so I'm sure some of you know him or have seen him around.
Show the local hero some love.

"Liverpool have rejected a huge £40million (US$78million) bid from Chelsea for striker Fernando Torres"

Seedorf will not play in Euro
"Netherlands midfielder Clarence Seedorf ruled himself out of next month's European Championship on Tuesday, criticizing coach Marco van Basten for not giving him room to fulfill his potential."

Sven-Goran Eriksson is reportedly lined up to become the next manager of the Mexican national side
"Reports on Spanish CNN suggest that the Manchester City boss has already agreed terms with the Latin American country and will be installed as the successor to Hugo Sanchez, after the legendary former striker was fired from the post in March."

Real Madrid wants Cristiano Ronaldo, but understands how difficult this could be.

"I'm at the right club, playing with the right players and I learn things all the time," Ronaldo told MUTV

Props to FoxSportsWorld.

Fabregas Interview  


Arsenal's man answers your questions. Pretty entertaining interview. 


How did you feel when you scored the late goal against AC Milan from so far out? Will you look to carry that momentum with you for Spain into the European Championship?

I hope I can repeat that feeling in the Euros and achieve something big with Spain. It was an incredible and unforgettable moment. I think I played one of the best games of my life against Milan. On top of that, I was lucky enough to score such an important goal for us.

At least he's willing to admit luck played a factor in it. Check out the interview here.
