I’m always posting videos on football and basketball and after watching these soccer bloopers, I feel a bit bad for neglecting the world of futbol. Who would have known that watching a little kid get pelted in the face with a soccer ball could be so fun!
Sorry, I’m a sick man.

Apparently Colombians take their soccer seriously.
In the 82nd minute of the Deportivo Cali and America de Cali match, a riot broke out between loyal fans that left 80 people injured, leaving 10 of them in serious condition.
A pregnant woman was among the injured while others were stabbed which all began after America protested Wilman Roldan’s decision not to call a penalty kick against Cali.
Apparently if I go to Colombian, not only do I need a passport, but a bulletproof vest.
Oh, for those of you who care, Deportivo won 1-0.
You can see a small clip of the riot here at ABC.net.

It seems like we write more about David Beckham’s efforts off the field than what he does on it, but this one can’t go unnoticed.
After a charity game last November where Beckham and the LA Galaxy played against Hollywood United F.C., the team decided to stop by this bar in Culver City for a few drinks. Beckham picks up the tab, which was around $100, and leaves $1,000. A $900 tip! A pretty generous offer, especially since it helped the waitress fix her car and her teeth.
Of course this is just chunk change for David. Can you imagine how much it costs him to keep his wife happy? I bet it’s way more than $900.

It always amazes me how some people off the street have some incredible athletic ability.
Check out these groups of guys and how they pull off their acrobatic moves, juggling a soccer ball.

Yes, that man you see above was voted by the readers of AskMen.com as the Manliest Man of 2007.
Yes, David Beckham beat out other “manlier” men such as and Peyton Manning (16) and LaDainian Tomlinson (41). Don’t ask me how it happened, sometimes it’s just the way the cards are dealt.
But something tells me that out of the 1 million voters who voted on AskMen.com, 999,999 were women. The lone vote being David.
Yes, we know it was you. Your gig is up!
Anyways, I guess congratulations.

Apparently those at The Vatican thought for a second about What Would Jesus Do? if he loved soccer, and they’re
prayers were answered.
Jesus would buy a soccer team, duh.
So to fulfill their holy obligation, those in Italy now have controlling stake in their local team, the AC Ancona, in hopes to clean up sportsmanship in the Italian Bishop’s Conference.
Personally, I always thought God was a football americano fan. Well, at least when Homer is in church.

Although it’s only official for one game, David Beckham will be helping out with commentary tomorrow night when his
team, the Los Angeles Galaxy take on Chivas USA in ESPN’s MLS Primetime Thursday match.
First ESPN tells us that they’re going to bring on a 10 year-old to help out with NFL Sunday Countdown and now their bringing on Beckham to help bring in the viewers. Looks like they’re pulling out all the stops to get this guy on camera since we know he isn’t going to be on the field anytime soon with his injured knee.
Anyways, if you’re at all interested, the game airs at 11 p.m. ET on ESPN.
