Now that we know who Gary Coleman is cheering for, it's obvious that it ain't easy being green, or a kickball fan, if the best you can do is slap on the grease paint and try to do a Blue Man Group cheer for your country.

A couple of German guys show their support for Saudi Arabia before Monday's game against the Ukraine. In a similar gesture, Saudi fans will dress as their favorite cast members of "Hogan's Heroes" to help cheer on the Krauts later in the tournament.

Nothing particularily special about this picture, just the guilty pleasure of watching French fans upset over that stunning tie against Korea on Sunday. Oui, oui. Didn't see us crying about a tie against Italy, did you?

Apparently, the affects of eating mad-cow beef from above in Korea aren't pretty.

An American fan dressed up as an ESPN reporter asks Landon Donovan for an autograph ... uh, an interview ... moments before an embrace.
