Two vids for you. The first? Abby Wambach, not kicking any copiers. (Question: Couldn’t ESPN have used a different star here for a change? Maybe Heather O’Reilly or Alex Morgan? Just a thought.

I get that the notion of feigning injury is “a necessary evil” to soccer fans, but isn’t that the #1 gripe that most American sports fans have of soccer? Why choose to highlight that in a commercial when you are trying to draw attention to the fact that you are showing the Women’s World Cup? I think this is rather poor compared to the Jozy Altidore shirt-swapping commercial and the Landon Donovan copier-kicking one. And yes, they should have used Alex Morgan…

Maurice Edu is a bit of a tool!
