World Cup Kitman: Denmark home Posted: 02 Jun 2010 06:07 AM PDT This summer's hottest footy fashions Team: Denmark Maker: Adidas Prem personalisation: Thomas Sorensen, Daniel Agger, Nicklas Bendtner.

World Cup Songs: #9 The England Fan by iKid Posted: 02 Jun 2010 04:52 AM PDT More World Cup tuneage There are plenty of World Cup songs about this summer, but OTP is going to confidently predict that this is the only reworking of a Tears For Fears track by an eight-year-old child.

Video: Nike’s Theo Walcott Mount Rushmore FAIL Posted: 01 Jun 2010 11:02 AM PDT Don’t play to be remembered A Nike advertising stunt has hit the skids thanks to Fabio Capello. A giant rock carving billboard featuring Theo Walcott has been placed alongside Wayne Rooney, James Milner and Rio Ferdinand on London’s Cromwell Road.
