Worst Football Injury ever
We think the honor of dumbest injury belongs to Kaiserslautern striker Adam Nemec.

Novelty Soccer
Panama 2 - US 1
Really!?!? We lost to Panama in soccer? Not that the US is a powerhouse, but Panama has never been relevant in soccer. I'll give them props for some baseball stars (Mariano Rivera and Rod Carew) and boxing champions, but soccer??? The US boasts a domestic league and players that play all over Europe. We have made it to the last 6 World Cups. Yet we lost to 11 guys that play at clubs no bigger than Santos of Mexico. To be fair, one Panamanian does play in Europe - for Lech Poznan of Poland. Guess how many times Panama has made it to the World Cup?
When is Bob Bradley going to figure out how to get this team to start fast? Why are we always playing from behind? I don't want to hear about how he won his group last summer in the World Cup. That was the worst group in the entire World Cup field. Bradley needs to go if we are going to be real players on the international soccer scene. In the '90s, the excuse was soccer is just now growing in the US. Ten years later, we seem to have made little progress. Our players have made strides making it into European clubs. But where is the development of the national team? How long do we have to wait? 10 more years? 20? We need a "game-changer" manager and we need him now. Enough of this bulslhit!
Oh yeah, and Landy cakes, if you don't want to play - get the fuck out of here!

Nice to see FIFA is run like a third-world country
This is the actual ballot used in today's FIFA election.
