If you're not going w the family, take a trip down to the end and hang out with the Ruckus for a bit. They're awesome
(if you're looking down from the top of the stairs they're on the right side, ILF is on the left)
We are hosting OCSC for a friendly next month, I have already been promised by the club's communications director that I will get to meet Kaka for all the work I've put in to help the club. I cannot wait!!!

So much poetic justice in these clips. Fucking shitbag Mexican fans throwing trash and shining lasers in this dude's eyes got exactly what they deserved.

FIFA VP Jeffrey Webb has agreed to extradition and flew to the US last night with three DOJ agents. He was handed over last night. I have a feeling he's going to cop a deal and turn states evidence on everyone.

Hope so. Then we'll see just how good this relationship is and if we can get rid of Sepp.

And it's big for two reasons:
1) It's a dry-run of the World Cup, so the nations that attend get a leg up on everyone else in regards to venues, planning, travel arrangement, etc
2) It's an international tournament one year before WC and gives you more time to evaluate our team leading into final qualifiers
