South Africa is a shit hole, the World Cup (or any other major world sporting event) should never go to Africa again.

Queens Park Rangers played a friendly today against Tavistock AFC and won pretty easily 8-0. This is my first season I'll be following an English team and QPR just caught my eye and I love their jerseys.

Looks like Freddie Ljungberg is done in Seattle. Held out of the last game because of a phantom injury, and his locker has been moved to another part of the locker room.
Peace out bitch.

Michael Bradley linked with Blackpool, and even mentioned with Everton, Liverpool, and WHam. If he ends up going to a club like Blackpool or West Ham, I'll be pretty annoyed Newcastle didn't make a bid.
Also, Bob Bradley linked with the Fulham job, doubt he gets it as Sven and Hitzfeld are also linked, and if one of them wants the job I'm sure they'll get it. Still, great to see an American coach linked abroad.Originally posted by mgoblue2290If you want to win, put Drew in.Comment

In the few games he managed to play last year, his legs appeared to be gone.
He might be able to destroy some MLS defenders but he is far from world class at this point in his career.Last edited by Archer; 07-15-2010, 09:40 AM.Comment

Aston Villa and England striker Emile Heskey has announced his retirement from international football after collecting 62 caps and scoring seven goals over an 11-year career for his country.
The 32-year-old cut an unpopular figure with some supporters during his time with the Three Lions, but travelled to the 2002 and 2010 World Cups, the European Championships in 2000 and also 2004.
As the target man for England, he mainly partnered Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney up-front in his international appearances.
In an official statement released to the media today, Heskey said: "I've enjoyed every moment of my England career and worn the shirt with pride every time I've been fortunate enough to have been selected.
"I'd like to thank every manager I've played under, everyone at the Football Association and the fans for all their support over the years.
"I wish the management team and the playing squad all the best for the future."
The former Leicester City, Liverpool, Birmingham City and Wigan Athletic centre-forward was given his first call-up to the England squad by Glenn Hoddle for the friendly against the Czech Republic in November 18, 1998. He had to wait, however, until April 28, 1999 to make his debut against Hungary under Kevin Keegan.
His final display for his country came in the 4-1 second round humiliation at the hands of Germany at World Cup 2010 on June 27, when he was controversially thrown on as a substitute in the 71st minute.
Probably about 5 years too late.Comment
