Fail Friday 12/10

This week's Fail Friday is footy-related.  It features the unforgettable, disgraceful whiff/handball/WTF!?! performed by Kansas City Wizards' striker Kei Kamara.  This video just murders MLS's credibility and is just absolutely.  The old addage "my grandma could've scored that, and she's only got one leg" comes to mind.  And to think he actually had a really productive season with the Wizards.  The Wizards may now be gone, but we will not let this moment be forgotten in the archives as well. Have a freaking AWESOME Friday, party, don't party, stay safe, relax, study, whatever. Just enjoy from Rip City Soccer.  Take it away Kei:

The Wizards re-brand to Sporting Kansas City SC


  The Kansas City Wizards turned over a new leaf yesterday with the announcement of the clubs rebranding.  The new name will be Sporting Kansas City SC and the new look crest is above.  The colors are basically the same, albeit it a little different shade of blue.  the club president Robb Heineman stated, "This is all about a new start. It’s a new name, a new stadium, a new time.”  Sporting KC are set to move to their new very own home next year, tentatively called the Sporting Kansas Stadium at Village West.  In addition to the announcement of rebranding, the club introduced new DP Mexican striker Omar Bravo, as well as the new kits.  The club has said it is near a deal for a jersey front sponsor for next year.  Interestingly, Heineman said the new brand was a move to be different and innovative, however Sporting is certainly not an innovative name in the soccer community.  And what's more unique and different than the Wizards?
