I've been on the hunt for some major inspiration of the sporting variety. I am 8 weeks post-baby (we had a beauty of a baby boy!) and ready to get back in shape. Then there was the most spectacular goal scored in this weekend's Portland Timbers vs Vancouver Whitecaps match, which fired up anyone who saw it, and kick started my search for videos of some cool sporting moments. I thought I'd share the inspiration:

The single most anticipated event of the Olympics is the 100m dash, and here is Jamaican Usain Bolt crushing it at 2008 Beijing! He writes in his autobiography, "It is said that the population of the earth is 6.8 billion, and that approximately 107 billion have lived on this planet since man came into being. It doesn't get any cooler than knowing you are the fastest of them all."
The event that catapulted women's soccer into the world's consciousness was the 1999 World Cup in the USA, symbolized by the penalty kick knocked home by Brandi Chastain, and the celebration that ensued.
Ronaldo's fancy feet...
