Landon Donovan (and U.S. Soccer) are asking fans via Youtube to send in their favorite moments from the World Cup. They'll collate them into one big fan video:
Here's my favorite soccer player, Brian McBride, talking about his:
My favorite moments:
1) Landon Donovan's 91st minute goal versus Algeria
2) Michael Bradley's tie against Slovenia
3) Clint Dempsey's goal against England (aka "winning" that game!)
What were yours?

Really loved Nike's whole campaign for the World Cup. Not impressed with Adidas, even though they were the official sponsor.
Glenn Beck on soccer: "I hate it so much, probably because the rest of the world likes it so much."

I had no idea Brandon Flowers (of The Killers) was coming out with solo stuff, but I'm loving this song!
“Will saying “yes” lead you to doing some foolish things? Yes it will. But don’t be afraid to be a fool. Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying “yes” begins things. Saying “yes” is how things grow. Saying “yes” leads to knowledge. “Yes” is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say “yes.”- Stephen Colbert, June 2006 commencement address at Knox College
