Some serious football fixtures demand our attention this weekend, Kickettes. Before settling

we switched to a new moderating system.

Footballer and male model, Lance Parker, is obviously cool with posing in his underwear.
Coincidentally, we are too.
Since he seemed down for our interview games and uncontrollable flirting tactics, we decided to
spice up our Q&A style a bit.
Who spends the longest in front of the mirror?
It's an age old tool we've been probing our favourite 'ballers with for years, mainly because
we can't be bothered to come up with any better questions.
As you know, over the past few weeks we've been training Chris Cohen of 'Talking Balls' to do
our bidding (so we ourselves can spend longer in front of the mirror) and we're pleased to say that
he did a magnificent job of getting the goods from Manchester United's Tom Cleverley and
Liverpool's Jordan Henderson, when he cornered them on Wednesday at the launch of EA Sports Grand
Slam Tennis 2 in London.

None of these men are Jose P, amateur futbal sala player (futsal) and member of the Penya Sang
Cule (FC Barcelona supporters group), prior to a huge piece of wood getting stuck in his thigh.

Representing for non-oft mentioned WAGs on Kickette, here's the wife of Fox Soccer Channel's

the slightest bit of attention.

Sometimes, it's the little things that make life worth living, isn't it?
Alright. And maybe some slightly larger things.
Serie A
Catania 1-1 Roma

Little Harper Beckham did the unthinkable at JFK airport this afternoon on her mum (who handled
the well-timed paparazzi invasion like the seasoned pro that she is).
Out of all the cute kids in this familial clique, she's the one to watch, Kickettes.
Sometimes we have to sit back and think: we're changing the world with our intellectually
challenging, life changing reportage on key events happening around the globe.
Where there's subtle product shilling and grammatically correct Tweets on social media, you know
there's a shameless publicity stunt just 'round the bend, Kickettes. And for you today we have one
of the promo shots starring none other than Mrs Peter Crouch for the launch of Lynx Attract For
Her.
