If you haven't seen the Nike ad Write the Future for the World Cup, check it out. It is pretty awesome
Great soccer match tonight at SLU. Ajax St Louis over 30 team takes on Kutis to see who represents our area in regionals. Ajax is the defending national champions. Check it out if you can. This team is VERY talented.
Looks like another 4 or 5 years and Lampard will be playing in the US. His contract runs up in 3, maybe he'll come sooner. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=790933&sec=global&cc=5901
Wow! Italy drops Rossi from World Cup squad. If you remember, Rossi scored two goals against the US (where he was born!) in the Confederations Cup. Is it too late for Rossi to play for us?! Damn! http://www.socceramerica.com/article/38308/cover-boy-rossi-dropped-by-azzurri.html
The mean, vindictive part of me says that's what he gets for not playing for the U.S. (I'm sure that's not healthy, but still...)
All I can say is that the deal is still being worked out. It's a little tougher right now because of the circumstances that the team is in.

International Tap House set to open new location in Soulard! http://stlhops.com/photos-itap-soulard-almost-finished/ This is great news for the city (and for me, it's closer to my house!), 44 beers on tap and over 500 different bottles. Is this soccer related? Hell yes, they'll be showing World Cup games on their tvs!
Weezer records a song as a tribute to the USMNT: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbOYBa77TCo&feature=player_embedded"]YouTube- Weezer - "Represent"[/ame] lead singer is a huge soccer fan and even requested that the US vs England game be broadcast at Bonnaroo on the large screens. How cool is that?
nice find. also if you go to weezer's official website, ( www.weezer.com )it has a welcome splash page that is dedicated to the US team. it also has a pretty good video that gives his history for the love of Soccer.
MLS releases players salaries for 2010. I wonder if NASL/USL #s will ever get released. probably not: http://www.mlsplayers.org/files/june_14_2010_salary_information__by_club.pdf
This song is much better than the one he made for the 2006 Cup. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTXSpK0VRlE"]YouTube- Rivers Cuomo - My Day is Coming[/ame] Though I do enjoy the singing of the roster.
I saw an interview once where he was asked if he's like the quarterback of the band and he said that he was more of an attacking midfielder. The interviewer was clueless, but I laughed a lot. Love Weezer.
