Randy Moss Tells Jets That Patriots Are 'Still The Team To Beat.' That Seems Wise
If there's one thing that Matt Cassel wishes for his starting debut with the Patriots on Sunday, it's that a prominent teammate talk some smack to the opposing team, which already has a contract out on him to begin with. Oh, and a very painful cold sore; that would be good. Randy Moss just couldn't help popping off to the press on Wednesday, when asked about New England's upcoming meeting with the Jets: More » -

Hail Britannia at the Appropriate Intervals in a Civil Manner!
Britain's Olympic successes shall be winging their way back to the Empire shortly to the waiting arms of the loving mother country. Prime Minister Gordon Brown has promised a "tremendous reception" on Monday when they pitch wheels down to Heathrow's new Terminal 5. Only one problem, naturally: British Airways and Heathrow has told everyone to stay home for the safety and health of all involved. We assume they just couldn't figure out how to charge a fee for the event. More »

Tony Henry, Croatian Soccer Hero
Interpreting this post's title, one might assume that Tony Henry, pictured, scored the game-winning goal in Croatia's crucial Euro 2008 defeat of England. Nope. Tony Henry doesn't even play soccer. He's a British opera singer. And thanks to a small gaffe, a new Croatian hero. More »

Today In Soccer...
The Premiership is taking the day off, due to some Euro 2008 qualifying games, and some other international friendlies going down. But the big story right now is Carlos Tevez moving from Brazilian club Corinthians to Premiership team West Ham. A guy like Tevez, you'd think would prefer a bigger club, likely to occupy a little higher place in the league table. Tevez says it's because he'll get more playing time with the Hammers. Sportolysis thinks it's something a little more sinister and underhanded. Interesting stuff. More »

Today In The Premiership...
• Cristiano Ronaldo, hated by everyone in England a month ago, was actually welcomed quite warmly by the Manchester United fans at Old Trafford today. He notched a goal and an assist in United's 3-0 victory over Sevilla. After he and beloved Wayne Rooney got into it during the Portugal/England quarterfinal match at the World Cup, it wasn't clear how the English fans would react to his return, but hey, score one for the rational non-hooligans. Color me surprised. More »

Wayne Rooney Has A Book
England and Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has penned an autobiography.

Hirshey: Forza Italia!
Forget the match-fixing scandal and apparent suicide attempt of former beloved defender Gianluca Pessotto that were going to be such huge distractions that Italy would retreat into its mournful defensive shell and not come out until they had to board the plane to go home. As anyone who has glimpsed those glossy Chippendales-esque ads of Zambrutta, Gattusso and company surely attest, the Azzuri haven't been this oiled up and ready to party since '82, when they de-pantsed the Germans in the final in Madrid. Did I mention I was there, sitting with my Dad in the mean heart of the Deutschland end, waving an Italian flag, shouting Forza Italia, and hoping the Germans had a sense of humor? More » -

England Keeps Winning Ugly
One goal on a set piece was the difference between England and Ecuador. For some reason, Ecuadorian goalie Cristian Mora, he of the pretty painted face, left Beckham about 80% of the net to shoot at, and Beckham tucked a nifty little curveball just into the left side. Beckham then celebrated with a case of the dry heaves, caught live by the ABC cameras. 1-0 was the final. More »

Live Blog: England Vs. Sweden
More fun with America Sr.: The English - with a lead from Mr. Waxed Head Wayne Rooney - are already into the second round, but they need to a draw or a win to secure the top seed coming out of Group B. A win by Sweden here gives them the top seed, and a draw guarantees them a spot in the second round. And even with a loss, they'll want to keep it close; Trinidad and Tobago are three goals behind in differential.

Hey, everybody, it's England! America, Sr.!

Will Crouch do the robot? Is Beckham wearing a sarong? All kinds of questions!

Your Last World Cup News Of The Day
The Mighty MJD points us to a Web site of considerable terror: Heal Rooney, a page featuring a huge picture (purportedly) of injured England striker Wayne Rooney, who is still in danger of missing the World Cup. The premise of the site, apparently, is for you, the user, to roll your mouse over Rooney's foot to massage it in a rhythmic fashion, doing everything you can to send positive energy to Rooney (and his foot) to make sure he makes it back in time for the big tourney. And they say the true power of the Internet has yet to be unleashed. More »
