June 2, 2010

Project 2010 pals and fellow soccer enthusiasts Eux Autres (an indie rock outfit based in San Francisco) have just released a new single called “World Cup Fever 2010.” It’s a little love song/anthem for the World Cup…and it’s totally free.

English perspective on USA-Turkey

May 31, 2010

There’s an article in the Telegraph offering England’s take on the USA-Turkey friendly.

Ndamukong Suh on soccer

April 23, 2010

This doesn’t really have anything to do with the US national team, but we’re native Nebraskans (and lifelong Husker fans) here at Project 2010, so we thought we’d pass along this video of #2 NFL draft pick Ndamukong Suh’s love of soccer.
