Always looking for new, weird ways to promote, self-promote and promote some more, Major League Soccer and Twitter are joining together to create one crazy marketing ploy for Friday night’s El Trafico between the LA Galaxy and LAFC.
The Las Vegas Lights are at it again.
The most entertaining club in the world — even when not playing soccer especially when not playing soccer — have come up with an(other) absolutely insane publicity stunt to promote the club, and this one doesn't even include llamas.
For the Lights’ United Soccer League match against LA Galaxy II on Sept. 8, the club will put $5,000 in cash into a helicopter and then drop it over 200 lucky fans, allowing them to fight over the precious dollars.
Jibril Rajoub, the president of the Palestine FA, was banned from all soccer activities for the next year by FIFA on Friday, a ruling stemming from words targeting Barcelona star Lionel Messi.
Rajoub had called on fans to burn jerseys and pictures of Messi ahead of a friendly between Argentina and Israel in Jerusalem this summer, saying one of the world’s biggest stars should not “whitewash the face of racism” by attending the match.
Paolo Guerrero has seen more ups and downs in the last 10 months than Donald Trump.

I love a good football kit just as much as anyone. Even the wacky ones, like SCR Peña Deportivo’s special Ibiza DJ kit. But in terms of which kit is, well, different, then this one might just take the cake. Meet the FC Rostov carpet kit.
You are probably thinking why on earth would they want to design something that is reminiscent of a rug in an old person’s home, but it turns out there is a meaning to it.
The exciting energy and good spirits that come with opening day of the season were soured by a group of Lazio fans on Saturday. Before the Serie A opener, a group of Lazio loyals distributed flyers to those on their way into the Stadio Olimpico telling female fans to steer clear of their “sacred space” within the stadium known as the Curva Nord.
The football landscape today is so cutthroat that teams will do anything and everything to try and get an edge over their opponent. Norwich City has made an attempt at some interesting gamesmanship by painting the away dressing room at Carrow Road in pink.
Why? Because pink supposedly reduces testosterone levels. Some studies have shown that the color lowers an individual’s aggression and testosterone levels, and Norwich City's looking to use that as an edge over its opponents.
According to The Sunday Times, a quality British broadsheet that usually doesn’t mess around, David Moyes is now a leading candidate to become USMNT manager. This is obviously just world-class banter from our friends across the pond, right?
Is there a Mark Wahlberg Columbus Crew takeover deal in the works? According to the actor, it’s a possibility.
In a saga that’s been going on for nearly a year, Crew owner Anthony Precourt is trying to move one of Major League Soccer’s original franchises to Austin, Texas. He claims the club is unsustainable in Columbus, with no potential investors having come forward.
