Will Ferrell: Comedian, Actor, And Soccer Club Owner

We all know will Ferrell from his hilarious skits on "Saturday Night Live" or from the countless movies we know every line to, like "Step Brothers" and "Anchorman," but now we know him as a new part owner of a new soccer club in Los Angeles. That’s right, Will Ferrell -- alongside Mia Hamm and many others -- is an owner of Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC).

In Will Ferrell's 2005 movie, "Kicking and Screaming," we caught a glimpse at how adept he is in the world of soccer, but his love for the game goes far beyond his coaching abilities in the film. Will's wife played college soccer and his sons play now just like Will Ferrell did when he was a younger boy. So, it might have been hard to imagine Will Ferrell in this commanding position as an owner, but I think his experience and pure love of watching his sons and wife play for so long will drive him to be a great owner to deal with. He is now ready and excited to move his love for soccer onto a bigger scope and have a big role in this new soccer club. While there is already a team in LA, I feel that with this new leadership and especially having the hilarity of Will Ferrell, this new club should be a success and attract players from all over.

LAFC has just recently announced their colors and crest for the upcoming team that should be debuting in 2017. The colors are a beautiful black, dark gold, and splashes of red. Now, those are some awesome colors. The black has always been a staple of the LA Club, but the gold and red give it something new and exciting for this new team. In the crest, is a wing, which pays tribute to the City of Angels.

I already love soccer and I have my favorite teams, but with these colors, the crest and, of course, Will Ferrell I think I have found a new team to call mine. I cannot wait to see where the club goes, and what they have to offer in the next couple of years.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
