Wow, it has been roughly a month since I posted and I would like to apologize to those who check the site regularly for not updating it.  Quite a lot has been happening since then, most especially trying to ready all the shirts/hoodies/sweaters for a Fall 2010 release.  If you notice, the store is down and that's because everything is going through a major overhaul so please bare with me.

With that said, I have something new and exciting to show you. Back in July I posted the "teaser" video. Well after two months of countless projects and undertakings, the commercial is here. Enjoy.

The idea is simple. From nine to five, while everyone else slaves away at a job they most likely don't enjoy we Live and Breathe Futbol.

I'm back with something really exciting to show you all.  About an hour or so ago I stopped by the printer's to pick up a new batch of Live Breathe Futbol shirts!  Except this time, it had to be done right, so now we have the shirts with our very own cool custom label. Check it out!

The design has also been updated a tad bit.  I added our trademark 45 degree angle stripes to the "L" for an added design quirk, hope you like it.  These are available in the store now. Click Here

In other LBF news, the new website that I promised around the World Cup is still in the works and it's looking great, I don't want to make any promises, but it will be up soon. It's almost complete.  Also new threads will be released soon! Thank you for supporting LIVE BREATHE FUTBOL!

With the Spain v Germany clash just finished and the World Cup in South Africa drawing to a close I'm sure most of you are feeling pretty sad that the World Cup is over, well Live Breathe Futbol is here to cheer you up!

I thought it would be cool to have a little bit of fun with all the events that have occurred so far in the World Cup.  What do I mean by that? Live Breathe Futbol will be giving away ONE t-shirt to ONE lucky winner of our World Cup contest.  All you have to do is submit (via comments on this post) a 2-4 line "freestyle" rap talking about an event(s) that took place during this historic World Cup in South Africa! Keep it clean and let's have some fun with it! Be Creative!

Contest Rules:

-  Each person MUST submit a comment via a profile that is linked to a valid e-mail address. That way if you win, we can get in touch with you.

- An anonymous entry, no matter how awesome it is, cannot win because we can't give the prize to thin air.

- Each person is limited to 10 entries.  So post your 10 best raps.

- The contest is open from 6pm EST July 7th 2010 and closes at 4pm EST July 11th 2010.

What is the prize you ask?

Here it is!

My good friend Keith, who is also a contributor to this blog (he wrote this piece) wrote this on my Facebook wall a few days ago after Ghana's horrific loss to Uruguay. I think it's pretty cool. Check it out.

I think I understand why people go to extremes during the World Cup. You
wait anxiously for four years for your team to shine in this
tournament, then, one second of brilliance, luck, or stupidity (you name
it), your team ends up crashing out of the tourney and you're there
thinking, "Are you effing kidding me? I went through thick and thin,
buying an authentic 'Gyan' jersey, risking my rent money, got cable just
to watch the WC, etc." Not to mention going through the emotional
roller coaster that these games put you through. Then you're like "this
is all worth it because I Live Breathe Football!!! Do you?

I shot the first "vlog" but I haven't been able to get it off my camera. Technical difficulties. It's coming soon. Stay tuned. We get a few days off from the World Cup, but best believe that once it's back on, it's gonna be even crazier than before! Enjoy. And follow us on twitter @LiveBrtheFutbol

What's up guys. I'm really excited about what I have to show you guys, which you probably see above this post. What that is is a 40 second teaser/trailer for the full Live Breathe Futbol commercial/advert that is coming very soon.

Why the phrase? When I examined what I wanted to do with Live Breathe Futbol as a brand I realized that all the shirts and every design is centered around one specific moment that has occurred in futbol or one specific moment that we as fans of the game can all relate to.  For me and I'm sure for you all that's one of the things we love about the game of futbol.  Those moments that change everything; the moments that change history.  I won't speak too much on that in this post, but we witnessed that today in the QF match between Ghana and Uruguay.  Epic stuff.

Love to hear what you guys think about the video! Leave a comment and catch us on twitter: @LiveBrtheFutbol as we ramble about futbol and other nonsense!!

P.S. I'm considering doing a video-blog (vlog?) series of posts, what do you guys think? Would you rather read or watch a video? Let me know what you think in the comments!

The World Cup continues in the a.m. Germany v Argentina and then Spain v Paraguay. Great stuff!

Hey guys, some exciting stuff going on here at LIVE BREATHE FUTBOL. As you are probably aware, directing your browser to http://livebreathefutbol.com takes you to to a page that displays our awesome new logo and a link here (the blog).  Hope you guys like it.  We were going for something classic. Something timeless that shows the essence of futbol, and what better than a crest?! True soccer heads may be able to see where the inspiration comes from, but I'll be quiet about that.

Anyway, things will be changing a lot over the coming week. The website is currently undergoing a massive overhaul and new products will be launching soon. So please bare with us. We appreciate all the support.

P.S. the website will be FULLY launched the same time as kick-off of the first World Cup game between South Africa and Mexico! Exciting stuff!

Don't forget to follow us on twitter @Livebrthefutbol

So we aren't unveiling the logo just yet, but here are some images just to show you guys that we are working hard at this thing. It has to be right. Enjoy. Oh and if you have twitter, please follow us Live Breathe Futbol Twitter

And here's a sketch of a new tee that will be released in the coming weeks...

Thanks for the support and keep following us!

Hey guys, this past friday LIVE BREATHE FUTBOL had its first ever soccer tournament @ Temple University [where I go to school].  It was a great turn out, lots of soccer players, fans and beautiful girls came to support.  My biggest regret? not getting to play.  Anyway, enjoy the pics and new tees coming soon.

There's one month left until the World Cup begins so we still have a lot to do here at LBF, but the World Cup tees will be releasing very shortly, I promise.

Every year, my high school coach and some others plan an alumni soccer game. It's always a great event to look forward to because it's one of the few times I get to see most of the guys from my high school team. Those who graduated in an odd numbered year play against those who graduated in an even numbered year. Last year was a lot of fun so I had to make sure I came out again. Unfortunately, the odds kicked our a$$es. There was one point I believe they scored three goals in quick succession. I hate losing, but it was a lot of fun and it was great to see everyone again. There were guys who graduated before I was even born! Anyway, here are some pics. Enjoy.
