See that picture? It’s Benny Feilhaber after he scored the eventual game-winning goal for the U.S. national team in a packed Soldier Field to defeat Mexico in the 2007 Gold Cup final. That is pretty much the high point of Feilhaber’s professional career.

The low point? Was it being benched at Derby County? Was it injuring his knee at the Toulon Tournament a few months back?

Nope, I would have to say that the low point of Feilhaber’s career is this video of Feilhaber’s rendition of the Jordin Sparks/Chris Brown song "No Air" (no, really), courtesy of fellow DP member SF over at The Offside Rules (WARNING: video may cause nausea or hysterical laughter and might be NSFW)

Enjoy the video (and please come back and share your thoughts.)

  4. From the headline I just thought you meant Benny caught Red Auerbach Syndrome and couldn’t stop eating all the great Chinese food over there.

  5. Damn! Of all the times for China to stop censoring internet posts! Of course, it’s probably been released to justify the war crimes tribual he’ll be facing as a result. Free Benny (but lock up this video!)

  8. The worrying thing to me is shouldn’t Benny be going over tactics and game planning against opponents? Still though, pretty amusing!!

  9. …It would have been better for him to come out with a sex tape, @least that wouldn’t make me question his manhood…there are so many things I want to type but can’t because for 4 minutes and 50 some seconds my brain was DE-RAILED.

  11. Ives, this is really nothing. Have you ever heard his podcasts with Sacha on USsoccer.com? That’s just Benny being Benny.
