Let’s just get this straight, KCKRS boys. Stuart Holden, his trembling thighs, his cute bro, his Superman cossie (plus any accompanying tongue) and his post injury care plan are ALL ours.

Got it?

Good.

When we’re not watching the footie, we love nothing better than kicking back with an industrial sized bucket of popcorn and criticising the hell out of the latest offerings from Hollywood. We were therefore thrilled when a “Movie Titles To Describe Your Sex Life” thread broke out on Twitter yesterday.

In the wake of the news that the WPS has been suspended for the 2012 season, former majicJack and current USWNT striker Ella Masar has offered her take on the situation via her personal blog.

Hearty congrats to the USWNT who are currently storming their way through the CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying tournament with so much ease that they’re actually attracting criticism.

Wambach, who scored two of the goals vs. Guatemala said,”We understand that 14-, 13-goal games can be looked down upon by some of our viewers, our fans, by fans of other countries, but the truth is we didn’t get our job done the last qualifying tournament, and this is a statement that we’re making to the rest of the world.

So there.

When we made the bold step of coming forward to #AskBrek which national team-mate of his has the best abdominal muscles, all we heard was *crickets*.

Now we know why.

Silly boys with their silly toys. They should stop horsing around and let us see and/or touch their six-packs so we can move on from this matter once and for all.

FIFA Women’s Player of the Year award finalist, Abby Wambach, walked into the FIFA Gala in Zurich last Monday virtually unnoticed by fans, cameramen, paparazzi and most other bystanders.

How come, you ask?

“Unfortunately I strolled in right after Shakira. She’s a little bit more popular than me, I guess.”

Only just a little bit.

With his biographical film premiering in the UK on January 17th, we figured now was the best time to have a chat with USMNT/Vancouver Whitecaps footballer turned movie star, Jay DeMerit.

Needless to say, we had a great time grilling Jay until he was visibly uncomfortable.
