They've Been Kahned!

From the BBC, comes an amusing intersection of sex, soccer, and the law:

A German sex toy firm is to pay German football stars Michael Ballack and Oliver Kahn 50,000 euros each after it used their names to sell vibrators.

The stars sued the firm Beate Uhse because it sold special World Cup vibrators called "Michael B" and "Olli K" last year without their permission.
Let's hope Ballack's bedroom namesake had a better season than the German midfielder did with Chelsea. As for the Kahn version, well, you know what they say about goalkeepers. ;-)
