EN RAAD 'NS WIE ER IN ZUID-Afrika is gearriveerd: Arjen Robben! Volgens Dick van Toorn zou-ie kunnen spelen tegen de Denen, maar Bert van Marwijk zal 'm
niet in de basis opstellen.

FOR ME, BEING A FAN OF MOVIE posters in general, this is an interesting thing:
minimalistic movie poster art. Note: I said
interesting, not
awesome.

AND PEOPLE, WHAT IS THE LESSON to be learned here? Never try to rip of the mask of a Mexican wrestler. He might punch you right up the nose if you do... Video after >

ALL OVER THE INTERNET THERE'S loads of stuff that guides you to information about the World Cup. But the best one so far is the

Marca.

I UNDERSTAND IT'S NOT equally loud on every TV-station, but here on ESPN it's pretty damn annoying: the vuvuzela's. Mark my words: They're
going to ruin your World Cup.

IF THERE'S ONE PERSON WHO HAD a good time during today's Blackhawks parade, it was right winger Patrick Kane. NBC made a nice
compilation video of his partying >

ONE ALWAYS HAVE TO BE ON guard when Americans start to pay attention to soccer or something outside the US. Combining the two, like WGN, is asking for trouble. Pic after >

EVEN AFTER THE STANLEY CUP was won by your Chicago Blackhawks, Adam Burish had still some cute thingss to say about Chris Pronger. "[He] is the biggest idiot in the league. If I see him, I’ll punch him." Video after >

KIJK, DAT IS NOG 'NS GOED nieuws, na de eerste schrik, de electrotherapie en de acupunctuur. Denemarken komt nog te vroeg, maar Robben zal zich
zaterdag bij Oranje aansluiten.

WELL, I GUESS THAT'S IT: JORAN van der sloot
confessed the

YESSS! WE GOT AN EVEN NBA Finals after the Celtics beat LA 103-94.
Thanks to Ray Allen (27 of 32 points in the 1st half with a record-setting 3-point shooting) and Rajon Rondo.

WELL, WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT this video? The band is not very good (understatement), and I'm sure if the drummer is very talented either, but he sure puts on a show >
•
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT (I KINDA did): your Chicago Bulls have a new head coach. It's Celtics assistent and defensive mastermind
Tom Thibodeau. Let's hope LeBron likes him.

YEAH, 'N GELUK BIJ 'N ONGELUK: de blessure van Arjen Robben (b)lijkt mee te vallen. D'r zit slechts 'm klein scheurtje
in z'n hamstring. Van Marwijk roept geen vervanger op.

Tyra Banks by Barry Hollywood
•
THERE'S SOMETHING VERY WEIRD ABOUT TYRA Banks. I mean. How can someone who is so hot on the outside be so messed up on the inside (of her head). I mean, you'll have to agree with me on both accounts, no? Bitch is still pretty damn hot, but at the same time crazier than a golf ball.
But that's the good thing about photoshoots. They online show you the outside. And in this particular case that fits perfectly. Check out
this pretty damn hot Tyra Banks photo shoot by
Barry Hollywood. Ouch!
Het beste van VI Oranje
•
TJA, 'T IS EVEN DOORBIJTEN, DIE GROEPSFASE OP 'T WK. En wat de Amerikaanse TV betreft blijft 't daar ook bij, bij die wedstrijden, afgezien dan van wat geneuzel vooraf en na afloop van Alexi Lalas, Ruud Gullit en Jurgen Klinsmann op ESPN of ABC. Maar... Gelukkig is daar Voetbal International Oranje
EN de internets
. Iedere dag goed voor 'n half uurtje lachen geblazen.
36 Dutch Bavaria tifosi arrested
•
BELIEVE IT OR NOT, BUT THIS ISSUE EVEN REACHED Dutch parliament already: 36 hot Dutch
models-dressed-in-Orange (poster) were
arrested during the World Cup match Netherlands-Denmark
yesterday for
allegedly promoting
Bavaria beer. The Dutch beer company, however, denies to have payed e.g. hired the babes - and they themselves plea the 5th.
Bullcrap, of course (proof for that in a video after the jump). That being said: the models weren't wearing branding on their orange dresses, so according to the law they weren't doing anything wrong. More pics of the chicks after >

Oranje tegen Denen, slecht
spelen en toch winnen: 2-0
•
KIJK, ZO ZIEN WE DAT NATUURLIJK GRAAG.
SLECHT spelen en toch winnen. Laat die Duitsers maar lekker
de show stelen (om vervolgens na de kwartfinale naar de Heimat terug
te keren), dan doen wij
't wel op z'n Duits. Oranje was vanochtend (vanmiddag) tegen Denemarken verre van wervelend, maar dankzij 'n eigen goal van Poulsen en 'n intikker van Dirk Kuyt, stond er na 90 minuten toch 'n nette 2-0 op het bord. Video met hoogtepunten en doelpunten na >

Shakira in Cosmopolitan
•
FIVE THINGS YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT SHAKIRA... UNTIL NOW.
•
Her name means
I am gratitude in Arabic.
•
As a teen, she acted in a Latin American soap opera that won her an award for
Best Butt on TV.
•
She's a huge fan of
Curb Your Enthusiasm and has a (no longer) secret crush on Larry David.
•
She learned English by listening to music of Radiohead, The Police, and Janis Joplin.
•
She has five dogs: three Malteses, a Golden Retriever, and a Great Dane.
WTF?! Oranje geen topfavoriet?
• PFF. WHAT IS DAT NOU WEER VOOR 'N BELGISCHE instelling? Maar kennelijk prefereert bondscoach Bert van Marwijk de underdogrol voor zijn Oranje als hij in De Telegraaf
zegt: "Volgens mij zijn we niet een van de favorieten. Ik denk dat je dan toch andere landen moet noemen."
Ondetussen traint Arjen Robben nog niet met de groep mee, ondanks dat iedereen in zijn omgeving (Dick van Toorn incluis) beweert dat-ie klaar is om te gaan. "Omdat het voor hem veel beter is om op een heel veld te kunnen trainen, hebben we hem vandaag apart laten trainen", aldus Van Marwijk.
Jessica Biel in Glamour
•
IT'S A MYSTERY TO ME HOW IN THE WORLD IT'S POSSIBLE that actress Jessica Biel doesn't end up in the Top 10 (to say the least) in every
Hottest Babes list that has been published in, say, the past seven years. I mean, come on now...
Just check out this beautiful Jessica Biel photo shoot in the latest issue of
Glamour magazine. FHM and Maxim and
