Beckham on his road to LA Galaxy
 
not bad :confused: he will be earning something like 70K GBP so that's something like $130,000 dollars a day.

Well if anyone is going to up the profile of soccer in the states it will be him.

Good luck to him. Always been a fav player of mines. Noticed on the news the other night he is driving about in a Q7 wonder what his choice of motor will be in the states.

Soccer?? Soccer?? is that the game where a bunch of guys kick a ball around but no one ever scores?
Ohhhhh Yeah... I've heard of soccer. To keep the crowds interested, you have to serve lots of beer and make sure there are lots of fist fights..

An occassional STREAKING of the field never hurts either.

RIGHT ON !

p.s. - you ever see that Ali G video where he asks posh spice if she ever lets Beckham give it to her anal? lol....

Seth- his best bit ever IMHO. Not as funny if you don't know who Beck and Posh are in their UK status.

BTW...Beckham is one of my favorite all-time players (this old American Football player actually loves to watch international soccer) and if anyone can raise the profile of MLS, it's him.

I know they have god like status in the UK... I believe they are more popular than the Royal Family or something.

beckham palace:rofl: :rofl:

not just the UK in Japan China all over the world really

but he so wants to make a name for himself in America with his best pal Tom Cruise.:confused:

In my book it helps that he's a looker with a decent body:thumbup: but also a true family man:thumbup:

if only GEORGE BEST had married a girl like posh spice to keep him in check.. stanley mathews must be turning in his grave at that moola

ALEX FERGUSON, Manchester United manager on george best _ "Unquestionably the greatest. There was simply nobody to compare with him _ he had all the attributes. It's so tragic circumstances led to such an early retirement from the game. He's a nice lad _ a genius."

Unquestionably, he's got some skills -- and he's a brilliant marketer. He will sell a ton of Galaxy tickets. To say he will "save" MLS, however, is probably a reach. What MLS needs is a few "Beckhams" who will give the league credibility, visibility, and international-caliber competition.

That being said, kudos to Becks; I hope this will encourage more world-class players to play in the MLS.
