alot of people dont know, but their favorite athletes are most likely soccer fans, and i laugh when they criticize it cause of jealousy or its "foreign". KG, Kobe, J Kidd, Nash, Baron Davis and most likely the international. KG said hes gonna see a Milan game in Italy now that Ronaldinhos there, and hes gonna visit the next world cup (2010) which is in South Africa, all this for seeing soccer freestyles on Youtube on day. i just hope he doesnt support Chel$ea anymore :D
