No Madrid In SLC

Real Madrid in SLC

Well, it’s official.  Real Madrid will NOT be coming back to Salt Lake City as planned.

While it hasn’t been announced who will be the replacement for the International game date, RSL had some great teams come through Rice-Eccles Stadium in the form of Boca Juniors, Morelia, the Chinese National Team and Everton in 2007.

Sounds like the Euro - Dollar exchange rate didn’t help the situation at all, but GM Garth Lagerway has his ideas as to who he’d like to bring in.

Foosball Goes Designer

Filed under: Design, Foosball

designer-foosball-table

Dunny tipped you off about this super sleek foosball table awhile back, and now comes this gem.  Designed by Jared Arp’s, this $9500 foosball table is constructed from hard maple and silver lace wood. Apparently there is only one table, and if you are interested in splashing out, all sale terms must be negotiated with Jared personally.

Nowak’s Toulon Team Together

US Toulon Team

Peter Nowak and Lubos Kubik have assembled their Toulon crew ahead of next Wednesday’s opening match against Turkey on Fox Soccer Channel at 9.30am (EST).  Their match against Ivory Coast (23rd) will be at 12.30pm (EST) and Italy (25th) at 12.00pm (EST), both on Fox Soccer Channel.

Looks like the last of the scragglers have made it and now it’s about getting everyone on the same page and getting over the jet lag.

To stay up on the latest developments from France, check out the team’s YNT-USSoccer Blog.   They’ve got updates on the latest gear, balls and team activities that are updated regularly.

This is going to be a great opportunity for the younger, less visible players to impress the coaching staff before tough decisions are made.  It also might be the last chance for others.

Inflatable Pontoon Boat

Filed under: Boats, Cool Ish, Design

inflatable-pontoon-boat

I have watched my fair share of Man vs. Wild and Survivorman and these shows have left me wondering if I ever really want to wonder out into the wilderness again.  Imagine how much easier their jobs would be if they carried this inflatable boat around in their backpack. Getting off that mountain (they always follow the river) or escaping a deserted island just got a whole lot easier. If this backpack has room for some other survival essentials, then this might just be of the handiest inventions for campers and other outdoor folks. And if the outdoors is not your thing, at least you can now tell the ladies you own a boat…

RC Cooler

Filed under: BBQ, Cool Ish, Summer

With Memorial Day fast approaching, that means that summer is right around the corner. And with summer comes BBQ, and with BBQ comes beer. If you want to be the coolest cat at BBQ’s this summer, then I highly suggest investing in the remote controlled beer cooler. Any cooler can keep your favorite brew chilled, but this one delivers to you. No more beer runs to the cooler where you risk losing your seat by the pool. For only $69 you get a toy and a highly functional accessory you can take from the pool to the tailgate.

Life is good for the Galactico these days. Will they be the new Madrid WAG super-couple?

The main man in UFC is a wide open book. Gotta give it to him for being so honest.
