Now THAT'S something I've never seen in sports before...

For those who enjoy soccer, or even simple remarkable feats of athleticism, right now, there's nothing quite like Cruzeiro (Minas Gerais) forward Kerlon's "seal dribble", in which he literally runs down the field while bouncing the ball on his head. It's totally legal, and, save for a foul (a technique which intra-state rivals Clube Atlético Mineiro used on Sunday), it's unstoppable. Check out the video at the links. Remarkable stuff...(oh, and he's only 19 - one more promise for Brazil's World Cup hopes).
