What happens when Dominic Oduro puts his salary on the line to prove how fast he is?
Well.... that's a lot to fight for. And you can only imagine how fast one of the fastest players in
the league is going to run to protect his earnings.
"@FreakyFast8" on Twitter easily claims his end of the bet, a jelly donut from "Touchline TV" host
Brendan Hannan.
Last September the Austin Aztex, under new ownership, announced their return to the American soccer
fold. Almost a year earlier the first incarnation of the Aztex had packed up for greener pastures

Many Americans continue to wonder about Snooki's weight (98 pounds!) who's going to be eliminated
next from "The Voice" or what twists and turns will happen next in "Game of Throne"/"Madmen".

will be available instantly for analysis.

back into the music world this week in honor of last week's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions
(We're pro-Beastie Boy.). Except instead of putting together an team of musicians, we're lining up
songs, specifically famous title characters from songs, into a harmonious XI.

This Saturday is "National Beer Day," the unofficial holiday in which Americans celebrate the
return of delicious beer and spirits to the nation's bars and stores with the end of Prohibition in
1933.

this moment when at twelve midnight they could drink again without fear of their suds confiscated
or their speak-easys shut down.
"Handsome Man" David Beckham has sold a lot of things in his day on either side of the Atlantic,
watches, fancy-pants underwear, fast cars, but these new Burger King smoothies are something we

sidelines if he's there again this week.
