World Cup Regulation Hottie Recap: Day 19

Jersey to chase: Today’s hottie needs no introduction. Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s abs might be more famous than his soccer skills. Hot, talented, and rich, Ronaldo plays for Real Madrid after being transferred from Manchester United for $94 million! Alas, the captain of the Portuguese national team and fashion designer does not have it all, as his team was eliminated from the World Cup. After Portugal was ousted by Spain, Ronaldo was said to be visibly upset… looks like he may need some cheering up.

Recap: In the Battle Royale, Spain and Portugal fought a hard intense battle that remained scoreless until the 63 minute when Spain’s David Villa took a heel pass from Xavi Hernandez. Villa ties Slovakia’s Robert Vittek and Argentina’s Gonzalo Higuain with the most goals for the tournament (4). It was the first goal Portugal allowed in the World Cup. Spain making it into the quarterfinals makes three European teams, however that is the lowest in World Cup history. If you forgot that another game was played today, don’t worry so did we. The Paraguay Japan matchup was also very close and came down to penalty kicks. Paraguay got the edge scoring 5 penalty kicks to Japan’s 3.

Judge rules: Cheerleading is not a sport

A federal judge has ruled that cheerleading is not an official sport. The women’s volleyball team at Quinnipiac University sued the college because it cut the volleyball program in order to save money. The team accused the college of favoring male sports. Under Title IX, schools must spend equal money on male and female athletics.

Us District Judge Stefan Underhill said: “Competitive cheer may, some time in the future qualify as a sport under Title IX. Today, however, the activity is still too underdeveloped and disorganized to be treated as offering genuine varsity athletic participation opportunities for students.”

Tour de France headlines talk about something else besides Lance Armstrong

Cyclists may not have a conscious when it comes to steroids, but that’s a whole other story when it comes to rider adequate.

The cycling world is in the midst of a controversy over the yellow jersey winner. During yesterday’s Stage 15, Andy Schleck started the race with an 38-second lead over second place Alberto Contador. As Schleck attacked during the final climb of Stage 15 his bike chain derailed cuasing him to stop and fix his bike. Contador capitalized on Schelck’s misfortuentes, passing the rider and taking the lead by eight seconds.

Many are claiming Contador’s move was in violation of cycling’s unwritten rule not to pass a rival during their misfortene i.e mecanical or crash. Earlier in the Tour, Contador waited for Schleck when he crashed, but Schleck felt betrayed by Contador after he attacked while he fixed his bike chain. “I’m really disappointed. My stomach is full of anger, and I want to take my revenge. I will take my revenge in the coming days” Schelck said.

The Tour enters what many to believe is the most difficult stage today.
