The whole place is festooned with Adidas logos, Phil Brown said that Hull had to intervene to stop Adidas swanning Jozy Altidore off to the draw the day before a match...I'm surprised that the seeded teams aren't Argentina, France, Spain, Germany, South Africa, etc etc, o wait, it mostly is...

Beckham said: "I was quite star-struck by meeting Michel Platini today - he's a hero of so many people. Everyone has watched him play on TV and my dad was a huge fan of the way he played.
"Just to sit down and have a coffee with him this morning was special."

It took City 44 years to win the league and 10 months to lose it

He said meeting Nelson Mandela was the highlight of his career. Jaysus what had that got to do with his football career. Obviously a huge honour and one of your life highlights maybe but would have thought scoring in the last minute against Greece to qualify your country for the world cup would be the highlight of ones career.
He is just a walking cliche

Bomb Scare
Bomb scares disrupt World Cup draw preparations

Preparations
for today's World Cup finals draw in Cape Town have been disrupted by
two separate bomb scares, with South African police making two arrests. Explosives
experts and sniffer dogs checked a bag at an entrance to Cape Town's
International Convention Centre a few hours before delegates and an
array of celebrities were due to arrive for the draw, that will decide
where the 32 qualifying teams will play and who their first-round
opponents will be. A police spokesman, Vishnu Naidoo, said the
entrance was closed for more than an hour, blocking entry to hundreds
of journalists and other visitors, after a man who said he was a
foreign reporter dropped a bag he claimed contained a bomb and ran
away. He was caught and arrested, Naidoo said. He added that
another person was arrested early in the morning after making two hoax
calls warning of a bomb at the city's international airport. The
person was traced to a city suburb and arrested. Naidoo, who did not
say whether the person was male or female, promised more details on
both arrests later. "Unfortunately we have a situation where we
have mischief-makers who are trying to disrupt proceedings," Naidoo
said. "It was a hoax ... but we have to react to everything." The
draw, to be presented by the Oscar-winning South African actress
Charlize Theron, is expected to be watched by a television audience of
about 350 million people. South Africa's
police minister, Nathi Mthethwa, said yesterday the country was
prepared for every security threat ahead of the World Cup, including
chemical and nuclear scares. While South Africa is not seen as a major target for terrorism, it has one of the world's highest rates of violent crime

This last week could have been so different. The excitement and anticipation for this draw could have possibly made me explode.
