Special Effects Done Right

Just imagine if this was how soccer was played all the time, it would make it so much more awesome. When someone scored a goal, the celebration wouldn’t just involved them sliding along the pitch on their knees and screaming. But it would involve them sliding along the pitch on their knees and screaming while [...]

Football Mash Up | FATV

Nothing beats a kickabout down the local park, jumpers for goal posts and all that. But here “On me ‘ead son!” gets a whole new meaning as these kids show off their ball — and larking about — skills pulling off headshots with great finesse. It takes a lot of practice to get an aim [...]

Best of Creativity HD – Early ‘12

The internet is a cesspool of creativity. Or, if you don’t like the tone of that line, the internet is a hub of creative purging. Better? Anyway, this video brings together the hive mind at play, mashing up the efforts of people the world over who unleash their ideas onto the big old web for [...]

Huge Soccer Fan Brawl

Here you go, a massive scrap between rival Ukranian soccer fans, 120 sluggers from FC CSKA Kiev versus 150 bruisers from some Dynamo Kiev, to find out which team has the toughest fans? The result is a particularly epic scrap that puts Brad Pitt and Edward Norton to shame and is a totally pleasant way [...]

Awesome Celtics Fan Celebration !

His mom gives him the nod, “The camera’s pointing at you son”. And that’s it, he’s off owning his 15 minutes of glory busting strange karate type moves up and down the steps, high-fiving, diving, ducking. It’s like someone’s shoved a firework up his ass and watched him go. This is as close to spontaneous [...]

EDL Fashion FTW!

A terrifying new fashion movement is sweeping the United kingdom calling itself the ‘Evisu Defence League’. They have been splitting communities up and down the country with their extreme and offensive ideas on fashion – It consists of Reebok Classics, Evisu jeans, Stone Island jackets & Lonsdale hoodies – if you have that combination of [...]

Gandalf Goes to the World Cup

If there’s one thing more annoying than Sam ‘Fucktard’ Gamgee, it’s those fucking vuvuzelas. Even Middle Earth isn’t safe from their incessant bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. One Noise to rule them all, One Noise to find them, One Noise to bring them all and in the darkness bind them, In the Land of South Africa where the Vuvuzelas [...]

Ultimate Football Man Cave

Win Sh#t Loads of Stuff!!! A little thing called the 2010 FIFA World Cup is on the way, you may’ve heard of it. Which basically means you’re going to be getting wasted and watching football every day from 11 June for a whole month. A terrible business, but someone’s got to do it. So [...]

Nike – Write the Future

What a difference a goal makes. All the big names of the game are here, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Didier Drogba and…Homer Simpson. And it also features a ginger beard, courtesy of a failed trailer trash Rooney. It’s probably the only advert some people cream their pants over. It’s directed by Alejandro Iñárritu who directed [...]

World Cup Strip

Now this is the sort of sport I could really get into, I don’t want to see grown men kicking an evolved pig’s bladder about a field while they dive and prance about like a bunch of ballerinas. Who gives a shit? I want to see gorgeous women shaking their soccer balls. Goal!

Goalkeeper

If this guy was the goalie on your team you’d probably want to kill him. Taking unnecessary risks for the hell of it is funny if you’re an unsupervised child or blind old person. The possible outcomes of severe maiming or death are all art of life’s rich tapestry. However taking risks with the scoreline [...]

Best Soccer Moments Ever

If you don’t like football then don’t bother. If you do like football, then no doubt you will be delighted by the classic sight of Giggsy beating the entire Arsenal squad and single handedly condemning them to 2 seasons out in the cold. Or better still Garrard’s genius!

World cup

Hey America – WAKE UP! You guys are doing well in the World Cup. You’ve beaten Portugal and drawn to South Korea and could well go through to the knock-out stages. And most of you don’t care, probably don’t even know what I’m talking about. This football the game that counts, not your parochial nonsense [...]

Umbro ad

A first rate ad, containing a salutory tale for anyone who has walked into a room to find someone having a good old wank. Or at least that’s what it looks like. And of course you jump to conclusions, make wild accusations, and refuse to listen to whatever excuse is proffered. For instance, that WAS [...]

Sports Stab

It’s the Rugby World Cup at the moment which is a huge deal for some people, and a complete non-event to everyone else. Except that England might [...]

pepsiBeckham

Presumably this ad was made for TV – it hasn’t been aired yet, making it a bit of a first. All you Americans won’t have a clue who this guy is, which is a strange thought because he is possibly the best known man in the UK. He’s a football player (the real kind) and [...]

Ice Baby

Revealing what product this ad is advertising kind of gives the game away, which would be a pity as it’s pretty funny.
An interesting side issue is the nature of the two protagonists: young babe and rich old fart. One of greatest things about being male is the knowledge that, having shagged 19 year old fuck-bunnies [...]

Hate Football

It’s the World Cup. It takes place once every four years, and lasts for a month. That’s one forthy-eighth of your life. So all those moaning fuckers who don’t like it, shut the fuck up and let the rest of us enjoy ourselves. Please.

Hamlet

A classic British ad which explodes the ludicrous myth we have all somehow bought in to that smoking is a dangerous, filthy habit, and that therefore professional sportsmen eschew it. This is clearly bollocks, as evidenced by all those tabacco hoardings you see outside schools, which prove indisputably that people who smoke are happy, active, [...]

Goal

A classic ad – but be warned, it’s almost a 5 Mb file, so if you’re on a dial-up it’ll take a while. It’s the one with the border guards somewhere hot and dusty trying to score against each other, and it’s been around for a long time so you may have seen it.
