Roberto Carlos built his reputation off winning everything and stonking thunderbastards wherever he went. He was like that new species of dinosaur they just discovered, the “Reaper of Death,” because going toe-to-toe with him marked the endpoint of your existence.
John Oliver, a proud Liverpudlian, is now a U.S. citizen. The comedian and former The Daily Show correspondent is about to start his seventh season of his hit HBO show “Last Week Tonight.” But all he really wants to talk about is his love for Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool FC.
Inter Miami isn’t off to a hot start and its inaugural season has yet to begin.
Back in April of 2019, Serie A club Inter Milan filed a trademark claim for the “Inter” prefix, and today it was revealed that David Beckham’s club lost the first round of the legal battle. If the Italian giant ends up winning, then there will need to be an Inter Miami name change.
Just when Cristiano Ronaldo thought he was safe from ridiculous statues, a carnival in Italy has created one of the scariest Ronaldo statues yet.

Argentine side Racing Club unleashed its secret weapon in a 1-0 victory against Independiente on Sunday: potassium.
When the feeling of hunger struck Racing midfielder Marcelo Diaz, the Chilean didn’t worry one bit as a banana was at the ready.
With the 2020 MLS season less than 20 days away, it’s time to prepare for an outpouring of insightful, well-written preview pieces that are met with a churlish “who cares” from social media user Pete_69.
I’ll have you know that my FIFA 20 Career Mode is going pretty well. I don’t concede often (I could probably play at a higher difficulty considering my 18 years of experience), but I'm also a dumpster fire going the other direction. Still, there’s a lot to like up in Newcastle as the city continues to come to gripes with its first American manager — I’m a trailblazer like Bob Bradley, screaming about “PKs” and “road games.”
The life of a kicker in the NFL is rough. Apparently, it’s even worse for XFL kickers.
And we here at The18 are all for it.
Admittedly, we’re not paying much attention to the latest iteration of the XFL. More American football? Really? We’ll tune in for Gerard Pique’s girlfriend during the Super Bowl halftime show, but when it’s the D.C. Defenders and Seattle Dragons? Hard pass.
Everton’s Djibril Sidibé probably wasn’t expecting to enter Saturday’s match in the first half. He probably wasn’t expecting to become the joke of the football world either.
Sidibé left Everton playing Crystal Palace with 10 men for a couple minutes after he failed to realize he only had one sock on as he prepared to enter the match for the injured Theo Walcott. Sidibé only realized his mistake when he bent over to pull up his sock that wasn’t there. He immediately went back to the locker room to put on a second sock.
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has enjoyed some success since jumping in with the team in late November.
The veteran manager has led his squad to seven Premier League victories and four draws out of his first 15 matches.
Early signs showed Mourinho may not have had a lot of answers for the top half of the EPL as he dropped his first three matches against teams in the top 10. However, Mourinho and the Spurs are coming off a dynamic 2-0 win over reigning champion Manchester City.
