Of the current expansion MLS teams, Atlanta United has the best potential for celebrity fans. They picked one up recently in rapper Waka Flocka Flame.

The Grand Tour Weighed In On The "Soccer vs. Football" Debate

The folks over at Amazon's new show The Grand Tour have waded into a very contentious debate: is it "soccer" or "football"?

At their most recent show (which we should mention is nominally a car show) in Nashville, hosts Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond (all Brits) tried to convince the studio audience that "football" is correct.

Nashville wasn't having any of it.

5 Of The Best Soccer Commercials From The Past Year

One of the most beautiful things about soccer, particularly from an American perspective, is the absence of being bombarded by advertisements for a duration as long as the game itself. But when commercials are done right, they can become synonymous with the event and sometimes even more memorable.

Kanye West’s Go-To Producer Is Tired Of People Blasting His Refereeing Skills

Mike Dean’s track record is unreal. He pioneered the Dirty South sound of the 90s while working with the Geto Boys, Nate Dogg, Tech N9ne and UGK.

He’s a living legend, but Mike Dean has received a ton of criticism lately after wrongly sending off Sofiane Feghouli in Monday’s match between Manchester United and West Ham.

Nicolas Cage Is In A Movie Called "Arsenal"

Nicolas Cage is making/has made a movie called Arsenal, which, from the trailer, you might not think is about soccer, specifically not about the North London-based EPL team of the same name.

But it is.

For a non-soccer, more Nicolas Cage-focused take on the trailer, read UPROXX's Brian Grubb on the subject.

Justin Bieber Joins Neymar And Rafinha On The Pitch

Check out what happened when Justin Bieber dropped in at Camp Nou to play some football with Neymar. He is actually pretty good (maybe not surprisingly after we uncovered this video of him juggling with Neymar earlier this year).

Given that Neymar and Bieber appear to be fast friends, we expect to see more Bieber soccer highlights soon.
