Happy Halloween, Black and Red United!

Oh my.  Don't you all look scary.  Except maybe for you, there in the back.  What are you dressed as?  A Red Bull fan?  Pahahahaha.

Here are your sugary linky dinks:

Rank 'Em: FIFA Ballon d'Or candidates - SportsNation - ESPN:  This rank'em site would be fun if it weren't so much work.  If Arjen Robben hasn't won a balloon door yet, maybe it's time.  I mean, the guy dives and all, but he's as much of a living legend as Messi or Ronaldo.

And your Friday Freedom Kicks treat for Halloween is this video about CD-making.  Did he pick the right tewwwns?
