Spain Apparently Is Not The Best Team In The World

Posted: 24 Aug 2011 08:30 AM PDT

Spain holds the World Cup and the European Championships, beating the Dutch for the World Cup roughly one year ago. (And does it count that Spain thumped the team that thumped the Dutch in ‘08? No? Okay.) Since that time, the Spaniards have gone 5-0-0 in real, actual international matches. Friendly record is less scintillating, but they’re friendlies, right?

So obviously the Dutch are FIFA’s new No. 1 team.

Further proof there is something biblically wrong with FIFA’s system.

No Such Thing As Too Casual

Posted: 15 Aug 2011 07:29 AM PDT

Just before Spain was busy being dispatched from their path along the impossible dream of winning the u19, u20 and u21 championships in the same summer, France was busy getting a lesson in late-game drama from Nigeria.

And then Gueida Fofana hit back with some drama and technique of his own, sending France on its way to a 3-2 victory in ET.

But perhaps even better than one of the best goals this summer is the fact he began celebrating almost as soon as the ball left his foot. A casually extraordinary goal and celebration all in one. This boy might be something.

Adrian Mutu Is Banned From Something. Shock. Awe.

Posted: 11 Aug 2011 09:38 AM PDT

193174-mutu-si-tamas

Outside of doing lines off a hooker’s tender parts – presumably – is Adrian Mutu really a bad boy, or just an idiot? Both are probably on the scale, but the weight seems to shift towards the latter. His latest “drug ban” was for weight-loss supplements, after all.

It’s not like he rock-star smashed up his hotel or anything, but rather consumed some adult beverages a couple of nights before a game. Not terribly rebellious, just stupid.

And he’s been banned for life from the Romanian national team for it. Because that’s just what Adrian Mutu does – get banned from stuff.

Gabriel Tamas was sucked into his vicious vortex as well. Less fun for him as he’s 27 and Mutu is 32.

“The two players have been expelled for life from the national team”, Piturca stressed.

“It’s a pity but rules are strict and they should have known it,” he added.

Local media said that Mutu and Tamas, who had been involved in drinking bouts before, had gone out partying on Monday evening despite strict orders from the coach.

A bit difficult to blame them for not taking a friendly against the mighty Most Serene Republic of San Marino seriously, however.

Nonetheless, Adrian Mutu: excluded.

As you were.


Hey, Something Actually Came Out Of International Friendly Week

Posted: 11 Aug 2011 07:27 AM PDT

(All apologies to Northern Ireland and the Faroes…mostly the poor Faroes.)

Aside from infuriating injuries and some pretty decent highlight goals, anyway.

Shockingly, the happenings actually came from North America. For serious. Where Jurgen Klinsmann somewhat stole the show with his dancing and goal celebrations. He’s like a skinny Maradona, but less of a coke problem and more likable.

Oh, and someone messed their pants.

Or Omar Aranello forgot to remove the packet of hot sauce clenched betwixt his thighs before entering the pitch.

One of these scenarios is more likely than the other.

It’s not the hot sauce.
