After watching this Beats advertisement for the World Cup, don’t you want yourself a pair, even if the audio quality is supposedly not the greatest?

PSC sign

I saw the letters “PSC” on a retail storefront in Kailua and wondered what that store is. PSC stands for Paradise Soccer Club, and if you’re a soccer fiend, this place is for you. PSC just doesn’t feature soccer gear and equipment but promotes a lifestyle influenced by soccer with a modern trend. It’s a cool spot.

I know kicks but not soccer kicks, and these Nike Mercurials look serious.

The Mercurials not your thing? I’m sure you can find something from their wall of shoes (custom made display too).

Need a break to think about your PSC purchase? Play some foosball or check out their soccer-themed LEGO sets behind the counter.

If nothing else, pickup a pair of quality Stance socks, especially the Aloha Hawaii line. Where else are you going to find a camo pattern comprised of shakas?

The new soccer ball of the 2010 World Cup was created by Adidas with some serious science, technology, and engineering. Called the “Jabulani,” this ball is supposedly the “roundest and most accurate ball ever played.”

From Popular Science

Read this Popular Science article about the technology built into the Jabulani. And if you want to marvel and celebrate this technology yourself, you can own your own Jabulani.

While U2 is the official rockers of the FIFA World Cup, that doesn’t stop soccer fan and music band,Weezer, from releasing an “unofficial” theme song for the 2010 tournament.

“Represent” is for the U.S. team and is available for free for one week on iTunes starting on June 11, 2010.

Thanks to the Weezer-loving Jessica for the tip.
