Cristiano Ronaldo 2014: Real Madrid Star Spends Children’s Day With Son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr Despite Nagging Left Thigh Injury

By Tyson Manning

Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo enjoyed Children’s Day with his son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr despite his packed and hectic schedule ahead of the FIFA World Cup. The father-son duo spent quality time together and seemed to be very happy during the day. “Happy to spend Children’s Day with my son,” CR7 posted a tender picture of himself carrying his kid on his Facebook page on Sunday (May 1, 2014). The photo showed the pair smiling happily, with Cristiano Ronaldo Jr putting his right arm around his famous dad’s neck. The snap quickly got hundreds of thousands of likes when it was shared on the football star’s social networking site.

Cristiano Ronaldo may look in high spirits with his son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr but his fans must feel concerned about his nagging left thigh injury. The muscular pain in his thigh caused the Real Madrid forward to miss trained with his teammates on May 29, 2014. It also kept Ronaldo from participating in Portugal's friendly against Greece on May 31, 2014.

Kwame Harris: Gay NFL player arrested after fight with boyfriend Dimitri Geier

By Zidane Randall

Kwame Harris, the 2003 first-round draft pick, came out as a gay man in an interview with CNN on Friday (March 29, 2013). The former San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle said that he knew he was gay while playing in the league. However, he kept it a secret out of fear because he did not believe being gay was "compatible" with his career. "I didn't see those two things as being compatible, but now when I look back in hindsight, if I could have done it differently, I'd like to think that I would find the strength, or find the fortitude or the grace to make the hard decision," Kwame Harris said during the interview. It was the first time the 31-year-old player has publicly spoken about being gay since he was arrested in January following a fight with his boyfriend Dimitri Geier over "soy sauce and underwear." The trouble started in August last year when Kwame Harris and his beau were sharing dinner at Su Hong restaurant in Menlo Park. Dimitri Geier was said to pour soy sauce over a plate of rice, which made Harris upset and the two argued for seven minutes. However, the dispute turned violent when the Oakland Raiders star allegedly accused Geier of stealing his underwear, tried to pull down his former boyfriend’s pants and began shaking and punching him. Kwame Harris was then arrested at his home following the fight, charged with felony domestic violence and assault charges. On January 28, 2013, Kwame Harris pleaded not guilty to the charges in San Mateo County Superior Court and posted $75,000 bail after his arrest. His trial was pushed back from February 25 to April 29.

Kwame Harris, who spent five seasons with the San Francisco 49ers and one with the Oakland Raiders before retiring in 2008, came out of the closet on Friday (March 29, 2013).

The formal offensive lineman was accused of punching his boyfriend Dimitri Geier in the head as well breaking several bones in his face in August last year.

Kwame Harris’ boyfriend Dimitri Geier was born in Shyghys Qazaqstan, Kazakhstan and studied MBA at University of Cologne. He lives in Los Angeles, California and is a software engineer in Sunnyvale.

Dimitri Geier is 6'1" and about 220 pounds.

Cristiano Ronaldo’s hairstyle 2013: A look at CR7's different haircuts

By Tyson Manning

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo is a heartthrob to many for his strong physique, genuine soccer skill coupled with a lovely smile and youthful personality. The Portuguese national is also well known for his fabulous enthusiasm and lightning footwork with a number of awards such as the FIFPro Player of the Year, World Soccer Player of the Year, Onze d'Or, and the FIFA World Player of the Year. However, not only is Cristiano Ronaldo popular for his skills on field, but he also makes cool fashion statements with his stylish looks. Besides his bricking success in the sports world, CR7 gets noticed in the fashion world too for his frequently changing hairstyles. The young footballer has always worn short hairstyles while making several variations in the cut for the past years. In his early years when Cristiano Ronaldo started playing in Sporting CP and moved to Manchester United in 2003, he had a very messy hairstyle with some sort of weird braiding coming out of his hair. The soccer star has then been seen in rather simple yet trendy hairdos such as the short curly gelled in style, the short faux hawk or the squirrel haircut, the spiky cut with copper brown shades, the straightened and iron hairdo, the classic taper hairdo and more.

Cristiano Ronaldo slicks his hair off to one side as he plays during the Copa del Rey semi final first leg match between Real Madrid CF and FC Barcelona at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid, Spain on January 30, 2013.

The handsome hunk looks quite magnetic in his short hairstyle that is fuller on the top and cropped on sides and back.

Alan Gendreau: Openly gay kicker hopes to get a shot at the 2013 NFL season (Pictures)

By Zidane Randall

Alan Gendreau, a 23-year-old former Middle Tennessee State kicker, is openly gay and he is hoping to play in the 2013 National Football League season after going undrafted last year. The devout Christian, Florida native came out to his family and friends when he was 15. He started dating boys in high school and had some on-again, off-again relationships with his boyfriends through college. Even Alan Gendreau did not hide his sexual preference as he moved to Murfreesboro to attend Middle Tennessee State, where he was fully embraced by his teammates. During most of the past year, the 5-foot, 10-inch kicker lived in Washington and worked as an assistant at a real estate firm. He is now a free agent and hoping to convince teams to give him a shot at OTAs in the next couple of months. Although the chance of him earning an invite is low, many believe Alan has the talent to lock onto an NFL team. Gendreau amassed 295 points in his career at Murfreesboro. In his sophomore and junior seasons, the Sun Belt Conference's leading scorer kicked a game-winner as time expired against Maryland. In 2009, Alan Gendreau was one of 20 national semifinalists for the Lou Groza Award that honors the top college place-kicker in the U.S.

Alan Gendreau came out as gay at the age of 15. When he came out to his parents in high school, they put him in church-based counseling.

Alan Gendreau was not drafted last year. Instead, he coached at a football camp, where other coaches saw him kick and encouraged him to continue pursuing his dream of playing in the N.F.L.

The all-time leading scorer in Sun Belt Conference once brought his then-boyfriend to a church gathering with friends from high school. He was then removed from the worship after parents of other youth learned that the mystery guest was his boyfriend and he was gay.

As a gay athlete at a Southern college, Alan Gendreau not only felt accepted by his teammates but he was also a successful team member.

Alan Gendreau hoped to get a shot at the NFL this year. If the kicker does make it into the 2013 season, he would not only be the first gay professional football player, but he would also be the first professional player to enter the league openly gay.

David Beckham retires: British soccer legend’s life in pictures

By Elisa Wasson

Former England captain David Beckham has announced his impending retirement from professional football at the age of 38 on Thursday (May 16, 2013). The midfielder decided to finish his career on a high after winning the French title with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) for the first time in 19 years. He is turning down the offer of an extended one-year deal at PSG, having just two games left for the club before bowing out. His last game of football will be on the synthetic pitch at Lorient's 18,110-capacity Stade du Moustoir, with the last home match of his career against Brest at Parc des Princes this Saturday. "I'm thankful to PSG for giving me the opportunity to continue, but I feel now is the right time to finish my career, playing at the highest level," David Beckham said. "If you had told me as a young boy I would have played for and won trophies with my boyhood club Manchester United, proudly captained and played for my country over 100 times and lined up for some of the biggest clubs in the world, I would have told you it was a fantasy."

David Beckham announced his retirement at the end of the current season on Thursday (May 16, 2013) after helping Carlo Ancelotti's PSG win the French title for the first time in 19 years.

The retirement brought to an end a glittering career of David Beckham, who is now set to continue his ambassadorial duties with a variety of organisations, including Unicef, Sky Sports, Adidas and promoting football in China. The English footballer began his career with Manchester United, scoring 85 goals in 394 games and winning the Champions League in 1999 with the team. He then played for Real Madrid and Los Angeles Galaxy, winning league titles with all those clubs. Beckham also played on loan with AC Milan and made 115 appearances for his country, a record in England for someone other than a goalkeeper.

David Beckham won the Champions League with Manchester United in 1999. The football star also won the Premier League and FA Cup with the club in the same year.

Beckham was the only British footballer in history to celebrate as a champion in four different countries.

The former Manchester United player, who won over 100 caps for his England and lifted 19 trophies in two different continents during his career, happily took a photo with his wife and sons.

David Beckham and his wife Victoria Beckham, who have four children together including three sons Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and daughter Harper, attended the Los Angeles Lakers basketball game at Staples Center at the Staples Center.

The 38-year-old player carried his 21-month-old daughter Harper Beckham as they left lunch at the Le Jules Verne restaurant at the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France on Sunday, May 5, 2013.

The dashing Beckham was known as much for his fashion as his feet with ever-changing hairstyles.

David Beckham has set the fashion with his haircuts over the years.

The soccer superstar was the richest athlete ever in British sport with his vast fortune of an estimated £165 million as well as a host of lucrative sponsorship deals and salary payments over the last decade amassing his wealth.

Gerard Pique and Alex Song fight during Barcelona’s victory parade (pictures)

By Tyson Manning

Cameroon international Alex Song and ex-Manchester United defender Gerard Piqué seemed to have a fight on a double-decker bus as they paraded the La Liga title on Monday afternoon (May 13, 2013). The Barcelona stars were seen scrapping on top of the bus while driving through the Catalan city to celebrate their triumph with supporters lining the streets. The two appeared to be larking about at first, but looked to be seriously quarrelling atop the coach later. Alex Song grabbed Gerard Piqué's arm and cocked his clenched fist as if readying himself to throw a punch. The former Arsenal midfielder, who has endured a turbulent season at the club since joining from the Gunners last summer, even landed a heavy slap on his teammate during the parade. Club captain Carles Puyol and goalkeeper Victor Valdes were forced to intervene and separate them in the unhappy incident, but appeared to be having a heated discussion of their own in the background as well after their teammates grappled in front of celebrating supporters.

Alex Song landed a left slap on Gerard Piqué during Barcelona's open-top bus parade to celebrate their La Liga-winning campaign on Monday (May 13, 2013).

Alex Song grabbed Gerard Piqué’s arm and seemed to be cocking his fist ready to throw a punch when they had a fight on May 13, 2013.

The former Arsenal man and Shakira’s husband were caught brawling on the bus during the parade, which was to honour Barca reclaiming their La Liga crown from Real Madrid after mounting a 10-point lead with three games to play.

Barcelona’s captain Carles Puyol and goalkeeper Victor Valdes seemed to play peacemakers in the end as they were forced to step in and separate their teammates Song and Piqué.

Alex Song and Gerard Piqué’s scuffle went unnoticed on Monday afternoon, but politicians in Catalonia complained that drinking on the bus was setting a bad example to young fans who watched their title-winners parade the trophy.
