By Michael Lewis - BROOKLYN, NY (Mar 18, 2010) US Soccer Players -- Sounds like Wilmer Cabrera wants to start a revolution in this country, a modern soccer revolution. Coaches, youth soccer coaches, are hindering the development of the game by not allowing players to blossom and think on their own, says Cabrera, the U.

So far, the Lakers' 2010 post-season campaign has seen DBeck's love for beverages and plaid. In fact, he's now so well-adjusted in America that he has quite a collection of colourful and patterned button-downs to show for his "dual" citizenship. We might even go out on a limb and say David passes for the average basketball fan.

"How can you be bored with Brooklyn?" The man has a point. And when Chef Ross and the guys at Woodwork are involved, boredom is not an option.

Oh BBC how I love thee. You had the best radio show ever. You can be artsy as f*ck and mainstream at the same time. You allow the occasional naughty bit to be seen on TV. And your World Service news is unimpeachable.
But you can also be misinformed, pretentious twats who think that if you say something enough times with that accent it makes you the authority (David Attenborough, you have so much to answer for).

The City Islanders managed a late equalizer friday night against the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in the 85th minute, courtesy of Nick Zimmerman. Zimmerman cleaned up a rebound and tied the score as the Islanders had moved to an aggressive formation after several substitutions in the waning minutes. This is Zimmerman's second goal for the Islanders this season and his second that earned the club points.

Trailing 2–1 late during regular time in Tuesday's US Open Cup match against amateur side Brooklyn Italians, the City Islanders were in need of some dramatic help.

Geoff Bloes provided it, side-volleying an equalizer to force the game into extra time, with a little help from JT Noone.

Said Bloes, who scored the overtime winner against New York Revolution in last year's US Open Cup,"It was J.

Bit late on this, but here's a wee gallery of David Beckham and son Brooklyn putting the Becks jinx on Andy Murray.

With the 2010 World Cup final soon to roll upon us like a soccer-specific drive-by, it is only appropriate that we get some (on) crack analysis from alleged Brooklyn rapper Dutch Master. This is pretty funny at points but really foul & totally NSFW. Watch at you own peril.

A Brooklyn father/son team decided to do a little science experiment involving an iPhone, an HD camera, a weather balloon, and a takeout box. Their goal was to capture footage of space. And they did. Space and our atmosphere can be pretty harsh, so they put hand warmers on the interior of the ramped up takeout box to insulate the iPhone and camera from the unbelievably cold temperatures and 150 mph winds.

But I absolutely love this and everything about it.
Chinatown Soccer Club is the epitome of every Thursday-night-11pm-ending pickup gathering, where you get to meet and know people by thrashing them to the ground and dirty step-overs do the talking for you. In New York though, they added neat graphics and design to make it look pretty.

"Mum, you look ridiculous."

As the headline says, news reaches Pies that David Beckham helps his kids with their homework on Skype... Or is it the other way around? Not sure.

Anyway, Vic-Becks has endorsed her fella's paternal credentials.

"Salzach had never been right": this was the widespread agreement in Brooklyn, not only in the hours after the catastrophe but in the days and weeks after it. And in this case the consensus was correct, for when the authorities supervising his case sent back to Europe in an effort to turn up his relations, they unearthed to their astonishment a family of ferocious German dukes, who explained not personally, of course that Salzach was in fact the fourth male issue of a creature called the Baron von Salzach, from whose house he had disappeared nine years ago, defeating all his family's subsequent efforts to find him and restore him to his birthright.

Tonight they were driving to the banquet. Odyssey was driving. Odyssey always drove. Beauclair was massaging his throat and looking at New York, which slid up to them in the windshield like a waiter who never stops bringing fresh trays.

"Seventh, Odyssey," Beauclair said with satisfaction after trenchantly clearing his throat.

Better late than never!

Welcome to the third installment of REGIONAL READER WARS, the Red Bulls Offside peak into the people and places that make this blog run like ketchup on chicken nuggets.

Even as I enjoyed the sun and fun in Asia, many of you continued to loyally dig into our past articles and posts, which kept numbers damn high in my absence.

There is a generation of men for whom sport is set in stone. Certain teams are good, some are bad and some are indifferent and will always remain so. In the USA, this would be the Brooklyn Dodgers generation. No matter that they moved more than 4000 miles away, to these guys they will always be in the fifth borough no matter how much time passes.

The 2010 World Cup really started off with a bang today. It was a great game between South Africa and Mexico. It's quite too bad that it ended 1-1, as Bafana-Bafana should have scored a couple of more goals. C'est La Vie (as the French would say after their 0-0 borefest against Uruguay)!

Nadal was asked if he wanted to meet David Beckham after his three-set victory over Andy Murray in Friday's semi-final.

So Weezer played a show for a few thousand folks Friday night on the Brooklyn waterfront and frontman/avowed footie freak Rivers Coumo strolled out onto the stage in a TH14 kit. This in and of itself is cool but upon further review it's kind of sketchball. Isn't dude a Galaxy diehard? Scandalous!

Before returning to the States on the 9th of August following their month long vacay around Europe, David Beckham and his boys – Cruz, Romeo and Brooklyn – did the ‘wave' during Arsenal's match against AC Milan in London this past weekend. Even Toy Story's Woody joined in on their family fun.

Feeling this local cat outta Brooklyn. I don't think he's blown up nationally yet but you can only hold back a delightful/disturbing mix of Freddy Mercury's trademark c***duster mustache, casting call-chic, nostalgic basslines and an outfit seemingly stolen from Schneider from One Day at a Time for so long.

22.09.2010 - Calígula - El ex árbitro ecuatoriano Byron Moreno (41) "se puso visiblemente nervioso" durante una inspección de rutina en el aeropuerto JFK, dice la denuncia interpuesta ante una corte federal de Brooklyn. Un agente de aduanas sintió "objetos duros en el estómago del acusado y en la parte posterior de sus dos piernas" y descubrió heroína distribuida en 10 bolsas de plástico, con un total de 4,5kg y no 6, como se dijo inicialmente (u$s 60.

Our Championship Chow series has been dormant since last season's appraisal of Peterborough Thai restaurant Yindee, but having branched out beyond the confines of the second echelon, I thought it wouldn't be wholly inappropriate to make a short excursion across the Atlantic to assess mealtime options with a footballing twist in the Brooklyn borough of Red Hook, even if it's doubtful that Nicky

For the first time ever, the San Francisco Giants are World Series champions. Thanks to a big hit by World Series MVP Edgar Renteria and another dominant performance by two-time Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum, the Giants topped the Texas Rangers 3-1 in Game 5 to take home the World Series trophy.

University of Wisconsin's Paul Yonga (Brooklyn Park, MN) had a rather long season for the Badgers. In someways that was good and in other ways not so good.

Yonga's team only managed a 4-13-3 season, but the former Minnesota Class A Mr. Soccer was the only player for the Badgers to start every game for his team.

You don't need me to tell you that the notion of D-Becks (aged 35) getting a 'Lifetime Achievement' award – as he did at last night's BBC Sports Personality show – is absurd. You could tell that Sir Bobby Charlton thought as much, not only by looking at his stone face up on stage but also when he was asked by the host to laud Beckham and could only describe him as a "pleasant" lad.

Victoria was gutted. Her feigned inability to exit high-end boutiques had always led to extra shopping hours when accompanied by hubby David. Apparently, Brooklyn was not so easily fooled. Image: Quem.
