Watch these soccer 'fans' discuss Landon Donovan's nonexistent World Cup play
Everyone's talking about the World Cup, but maybe some of them should just stop. On Tuesday's Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Lie Witness News team hit Hollywood Boulevard to ask Team U.S.A.'s biggest fans how they thought Landon Donovan had been performing so far. The only problem is Donovan was cut before the World Cup began, so anything these "fans" said would be a big fat lie. Watch the clip to hear all about Donovan's alleged exploits, including the time he scored against Saskatchewan, bit another player ("he's hot, so I don't care"), and was scolded by President Obama. --Catherine Garcia
