GUYS, DON’T VOTE. THIS ONE ISN’T FOR YOU. SERIOUSLY, STOP. NO, REALLY, DON’T CLICK THAT. SHEESH. GUYS NEVER LISTEN.
Girl crush poll time! Since the guys in the room aren’t allowed to vote (because that’s just a crush, and we already know how you feel about Alex Morgan shut up you’re getting creepy-) just sit there and ponder girls crushing on girls. // Kickette
WHICH IS MORE OUT OF DATE? THE GAME OR THE MUSIC?
Let’s take a stroll down memory lane and revisit the music of FIFA 2004 with this excellent blog that totally needs to get KCKRS on its blogroll. Ahem. // The Third Kit

AND THE OSCAR FOR MOSTLY AVOIDING THE TRAP OF THE OSCAR-THEMED LINK POST GOES TO…
Not that there’s anything wrong with giving out the Oscar for “Best Performance by an Player in a Leading Role”, even though there’s almost no mystery as to who is going to get it. I suppose we could have had some fun with “Best Live Action Short.” Theo Walcott scored a couple of times this weekend, right?
Much like the cinema, KCKRS brings magic into your lives – so follow us and like us. Oscar says to.
