Altidor's Nickname

Emerging American footie star Jose Altidor got his nickname of "Juice" while gaming:
*
"The nicknames go back to their time at the U.S. under-17 residency camp in Bradenton, Fla., and how they tried to rattle each other while playing video games...Teasing each other about their names, Kirk created Oatmeal to mock Altidore, while Ofori Sarkodie tweaked Altidore's formal name, Josmer, to Juice-mer, and eventually just Juice."

Ronaldo Is Adebayor's Playstation Hero

Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor has great respect for his United rival, Cristiano Ronaldo:

"I love to watch him [Ronaldo]...He is a good player with lots of quality. Watching him play is something else – it is like watching a player on PlayStation. I have a lot of respect for what he has done. As a midfielder, he has scored a lot of goals. He is a good player."
