>>The story of Bobby Boswell's ill-fated Nickelodeon GUTS appearance is well documented, thanks to some tremendous coverage from Dan Steinberg at The Sports Bog. It wasn't until yesterday, however, that we received indisputable video evidence of the incident. BobbyBoswell.com has the goods. The key quote from the clip: "I'll be honest with you. I scored a goal against Chelsea, was an MLS All Star. I was the defender of the year and just recently named to the Best XI.

>>The D.C. Gaels got a landmark victory this weekend, beating the Philadelphia Shamrocks 0-12 to 1-5. The victory was their first against the Shamrocks. What the hootenanny are the D.C. Gaels?

There's a clip on the Gaels' web site that gives you a better idea of the game. According to their Development and Recruiting Officer, they're "always looking for new players", so if you're feeling the need to hurl feel free to shoot them an email.
