Another Sample Post

Here is a funny video I found comparing futbol and football. It shows Reggie Bush (top USA football player) practicing with David Beckham (British futbol player). You all know that I prefer American football, but I thought that this video makes the differences between the two sports seem funny and even a little unimportant. And, at one point David Beckham speaks two words of Spanish.

You may recognize this band from the background of Shakira's Waka Waka video--FreshlyGround is a very popular band in South Africa. They are one of my favorite bands in the world, and their concert was the best performance I have ever seen. Half of their songs are in English and half are in Xhosa (a South African language).



And here's one of their songs in Xhosa. To download it, right-click the link and select "Save Link As."
