Philippines’ Football Team “Azkals” historical win over Vietnam among biggest soccer stories of 2010
Call it luck, call it teamwork. You can call it whatever you like but the Philippine soccer team “Azkals” made it to Sports Illustrated’s Top 10 Soccer Stories of 2010!
We have something to be proud of here and this is just the beginning of the Filipinos’ love affair with football (soccer).
According to the write-up, Philippine Vice-President Jejomar Binay promised a national training program! Yeheyy!!
I’m all for it!!
10. Philippines beats Vietnam.
The Asean Football Federation’s biennial Suzuki Cup might not be too high up on your list of priorities, but this year’s tournament produced arguably the biggest upset in its history: Defending champion and federation powerhouse Vietnam lost 2-0 to the Philippines, ranked 151st in the world and without so much as a point off Vietnam in nearly 20 years. Accusing the Azkals of parking the bus, Vietnamese coach Henrique Calisto refused to shake his opposite number’s hand after the match. Simon McMenemy was upset by the gesture but wouldn’t be drawn into a slanging match after a result that prompted the country’s vice president, Jejomar Binay, to promise a national training program.

Indonesia takes the win (1-0) vs Philippines at AFF 2010 Suzuki Cup – but it’s not over yet. (VIDEO)
Although the Philippines didn’t take the win during it’s round against Indonesia, the Philippine coach is still hopeful that the next game can still take them to the finals.
Philippines coach Simon McMenemy acknowledged that Indonesia was better the team, but said the tie wasn’t over yet.
“We’ll stick to our game plan,” the Englishman said.
“We have to play fast and attacking football. I think we did pretty well tonight. I don’t think Indonesia broke us down many times. It was a mistake that cost us a goal, and the mistake came because the boys couldn’t hear each other.
“We can’t sit back and expect to hold out for 180 minutes. We have to try to win this game.
The second leg returns to Bung Karno Stadium on Sunday.
Here’s the video of the game played by Philippines’ AZKALS vs the Indonesian team.

FIFA #World Cup 2018 and 2022 Host Countries to be announced today. Russia and Qatar Wins.
For whatever it’s worth, FIFA World Cup 2010 was very helpful for my blog with reference to additional traffic and income of course. I never paid attention to soccer (football) before until this year. It was very successful for South Africa and I actually felt that the world was paying attention to soccer for once – even in the US where soccer is not as famous as baseball and football.
Well, it’s time to announce the hosting countries for FIFA World Cup 2018 and 2022. I know that the US is bidding as well and they have to pitch it to the 22 members of the committee, and Morgan Freeman was one of our pitchers. Even Prince William and David Beckham were pitching for England as well.
Do you want to find out who wins? Follow the LIVE ANNOUNCEMENT on ESPN. Happening now.
Update: Russia wins to host FIFA World Cup 2018!!
Update: QATAR wins to host FIFA World Cup 2022 beating the US.
Steve Johnson drops Game-Winning Touch Down, lose against Steelers. Then he blames God.
I’m sorry. I have never seen God dragged into a football game but Stevie Johnson thinks so. 
He dropped the ball (literally) on what could have been a game-winning touchdown. Then, he tweets that it was God’s fault. Man…. craziness.

Paul the Psychic Octupus Dies
I am sad. After I read the news about Paul the Octopus’ passing this morning, I couldn’t help but remember the entertainment he provided during the World Cup. Paul the Octopus came onto the global spotlight during the FIFA World Cup of 2010 when it correctly predicted the outcome all seven Germany games during this year’s World Cup including Spain’s 1-0 win during the finals. He did this by opening a lid to a clear box to feed on the mussel inside the box bearing the predicted winner’s flag.
Not only was I getting attuned to watching soccer, I was enjoying the way Paul was predicting the winner. He was even appointed as an ambassador to England’s bid to host the 2018 World Cup.
He is 2 1/2 years old.
There are suggestions that they will give Paul a proper burial place and a memorial. If that is true, I would like to pay him a visit one day when I’m in Germany.

Is life really that bad these days? Former NFL Star Junior Seau drives SUV off cliff. Survives. (VIDEO)
Former NFL Star Junior Seau who was arrested in the early morning hours on Monday after reports of domestic violence in his home. When he was released on bail, he drove his Cadillac SUV off the cliff in Carlsbad, CA. Luckily, he survived.
Has life really been that tough lately? With all the teen suicides and recent reports of people taking their own lives – what is it really? Are we too weak to take on challenges? Life is not easy but it does get better. We need something to take us through tough times. I wonder what it is we’re lacking these days.

Eagles’ Michael Vick a Star again? What do you think?
Philadelphia Eagles’ Quarterback Michael Vick is all over the news and newspaper this morning. He did a stellar performance that was too hard to ignore not only by loyal fans but the whole country.
If you remember back in 2007, Michael Vick was suspended indefinitely without pay by the NFL because of his connection to the Bad Newz Kennels dog fighting operation. He was imprisoned after pleading guilty. Last year on August 2009, Vick signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles which contained a team option for the 2010 season worth $5 Million dollars.

Elin Nordegren Speaks About Tiger Woods and her Experience
I have nothing bad to say against Elin Nordegren. She has just been the most patient and classiest person throughout the Tiger Woods saga of infidelity. She never spoke to the media during the hype of the issue. She kept her cool and took care of her children like she normally wood.
People.com reports that Elin Nordegren and her team approached them to speak out about the “alleged” violence in their household saying that she swung a golf club at Tiger was simply “ridiculous”.
Can you imagine this. She never even knew of the affairs until it broke out saying:
“I’m so embarassed that I never suspected [his affairs] – not a one.”
As calm as she has been throughout the scandal, she still says that what she had with Tiger was a real marriage. She thought of Tiger the same was as everybody did – - a good family man, a man of integrity and focus.. and all that. Indeed, she was apparently torn apart by the news and said that the word “Betrayal is not strong enough.” Wow.
