The MLS recently announced the pricing for the next round of teams to enter the league. With plans to add four more teams in order to reach 28, cities across the US are racing for selection. Long considered a candidate for expansion, St. Louis fans will be frustrated to see comments from the new governor-elect that could push their city down the bid list.
Former Mexico international Cuauhtemoc Blanco began and ended a hunger strike over the weekend to protest an impeachment process that attempted to unseat him as mayor of Cuernavaca.
When Jack Skellington grew tired of organizing Halloween Town’s Halloween celebration in Disney’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, the ghost skeleton proceeded to plot and scheme over how he could take charge of Christmas as well. Unable to understand the spirit of the holiday and personally impulsive to a fault, Jack almost ruined Christmas for everyone.
Former FIFA President Sepp Blatter has lost the appeal against his six-year ban from soccer activity, and we would just like to say HA. WOOOOOO!!!!!
Blatter's ban is either for being very corrupt or very incompetent, depending on who you believe. It was originally for eight years but was reduced. Blatter's appeal was aimed at reducing it further.

So our boss asked us to write some articles about the most-searched footballers from the month of October, and so we picked Reading's German-American midfielder Danny Williams and WOW we did not know we were going to be bringing you hot political news this week.
So, the election is over, but apparently in October there was some kind of wild bullshit thing about Bill Clinton having an illegitimate son, and apparently there was a person who came forward claiming to be said illegitimate son and that person is/was named Danney Williams.
Jonjo Shelvey is in trouble.

If Hillary Clinton was elected president, we all know she would have helped America move closer to women’s rights and equality. But Donald Trump won the election instead. So, what does this mean for women’s soccer? Will Trump continue to insult and treat women poorly? Will his presidency create a bigger gap between the two genders? Will we move further away from equal pay? It hasn’t even been 48 hours and we already have so many questions…
Yes, it is true. Donald Trump will be the 45th President of the United States.
This election will go down in history, as America has elected an outsider with no previous political or military experience. Many soccer players expressed their opinions and reactions on Twitter during the election as well as after the news broke about Donald Trump winning the election. So here’s a list of Tweets from soccer players:
While the focus has rightly been on corruption allegations in the bidding process, bribery, money laundering, forced labor, human rights abuses, the host country’s stance towards members of the LGBT community and climactic conditions resulting in a contentious decision to move the tournament to November and December, Qatari officials have come to another controversial decision by forbidding the consumption of alcohol “on the streets, squares and [in] public places” at the 2022 World Cup.
Hi, and welcome to Canada! We’re sooorry about what happened in your general election, but don’t say we didn’t warn you — what, with your love of s***-kickers and deking social responsibility. We gave the world Justin Bieber, sure, but you’ve responded in turn with your new president — I wouldn’t say that we’re even. Just admit that you made a massive mistake in leaving the monarchy, and we’ll leave it at that.
