The Never Ending Tennis Match

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 08:56 PM PDT

Is this even real? At Wimbledon, John Isner and Nicolas Mahut having been playing tennis for ten hours and there has yet to be a winner. As it stands, the fifth set is 59-59. Thursday will mark Day 3 of this never ending tennis match.

How is this happening?

“He’s serving fantastic. I’m serving fantastic — that’s really all there is to it,” said Isner, who is from Tampa, Florida.

“Someone has to win,” said France’s Mahut, “so we’ll come back tomorrow and see who is going to win the match.”

No other tennis match has ever gone seven hours. This one is at ten hours and going! Both players have broken the record for aces in a match. By the time this match is over, there will be literally dozens of new records.

For any type of sports fan, watching the end of the never ending tennis match on Thursday is a must. Well, that’s assuming that it doesn’t extend into Friday . . .

Video: Landon Donovan's Goal Saves U.S.

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 08:55 PM PDT

Entering the World Cup game between the United States and Algeria, the good guys needed a win to advance to the next round. For the first 90 minutes, U.S. fans might as well spent the time banging their head against a wall. The U.S. had plenty of chances but kept on blowing it. With the game scoreless, it appeared as if the United States soccer team was headed to a failure of epic proportions.

Then it happened.

Landon Donovan scored a goal in the 91st minute to lift the U.S. to a 1-0 victory over Algeria. If the United States can make any noise in the knockout portion of the World Cup, Donovan’s goal may be looked upon as the most important in the history of United States soccer.

Earlier in the tournament against Slovenia, the U.S. had a goal unjustly disallowed. In this game against Algeria, it happened yet again. A goal that should have counted was disallowed after a phantom offsides call. Thankfully Donovan’s goal makes the latest ref mistake a distant memory.

On Saturday, the U.S. takes on Ghana in a winner-take-all matchup. Don’t look now but the United States soccer team is actually favored by many to advance.

Here’s a Landon Donovan video of his goal:

Kahlúa is great in coffee in the wintertime, but that doesn’t mean you should abandon it in the summer. Kahlúa, the original coffee liquor, has teamed up with two of America’s favorite baristas to put a new spin on summer cocktails. Using the classic iced coffee, these baristas have come up with four cool cocktails.

Kim Kardashian Loves Football

Posted: 23 Jun 2010 05:09 PM PDT

Kim Kardashian apparently can’t get enough of the NFL. After breaking up with long-time boyfriend, New Orleans running back Reggie Bush, just two months ago, she’s now moved on to the Dallas Cowboys. Earlier this month, Kim was spotted with 26-year-old Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin.

The couple were reportedly getting cozy at Casa Vega in Sherman Oaks on June 6. "They sat in the back drinking margaritas," sources tell Us Weekly. "They are dating but she doesn't want to rush anything. Kim wants to date someone who gets her busy lifestyle."

At least Cowboys fans don’t need to worry about her jinxing the team (like Jessica Simpson with Tony Romo). Reggie won a Super Bowl while dating Kim.
