Lewis Hamilton - Pure Genius?

So, the Formula 1 season is over - and what an entertaining season it’s been. For the first time since the 80’s the championship was a 3-way battle on the final race of the season. As we all now know, Kimi Raikkonen came out of Sundays Brazilian Grand Prix as the championship winner - by 1 point.

It is true to say that the championship win is a fantastic achievement for Kimi, especially after starting so badly. But, and maybe I’m a little biased here, the true hero of the 2007 F1 season has to be a certain Lewis Hamilton.

Soccer Comedy!

Before we officially launch this site, I’ve been completing hours and hours of endless research - including watching videos like this!

I found this on YouTube and as it made me laugh so much, I thought I should share it with any early readers we get here at CLDsport.

Football (or soccer!) can sometimes go a little wrong. Watch the full video, and if you don’t laugh at least once then I will eat my hat!

Cristiano Ronaldo Videos - How Global Football Fans Revere Their Manchester United Idol

Cristiano Ronaldo videos are currently proving very popular with football afficionados the world over. But just who is Cristiano Ronaldo?

Cristiano Ronaldo burst onto the world scene in the highly regarded English Premier League in 2003. Just a few days earlier, Manchester United lost whilst playing an overseas match against Sporting Clube de Portugal. During this match, Sir Alex Ferguson’s eye was drawn to this “wonderkid” of a player.

Fergie had not previously viewed any Cristiano Ronaldo videos, nor did he know much about this player. However, on the plane home after the match, several of United’s players encouraged Fergie to quickly put in a bid for the youngster, lest any other teams find out about this unique talent and start a bidding war.

As Manchester United were in the market for a new winger (David Beckham had recently left), a quick bid of around £12 million was tabled and the deal quickly wrapped up.

The “other Ronaldo” was unveiled shortly thereafter at Old Trafford and introduced within days as a substitute against Bolton Wanderers. That day is recalled with fond memories by Manchester United supporters who remember how he completely baffled the other team with his perfectly timed feints and elaborate stepovers, often beating and going past up to three players at a time.

Since then, Ronaldo has shown that he is one of the world’s most feared attackers. He can play on either wing and even as a supporting striker. As a midfielder, he scores many more goals than is the average for that position which is appreciated greatly by United as they have seen lean goalscoring periods in the past few years from some of their midfielders, whose contribution to goals is considered an important supplement to the regular staple produced by the orthodox strikers.

With the advent of user uploaded video content sites such as YouTube and DailyMotion, many people the world over have created their own collages of this youngster’s career in the form of Cristiano Ronaldo videos. Typically these are edited scenes of his most famous goals and deft flicks with accompanying music.
