It looks like David Beckham and Posh Spice will be making their way to Los Angeles to attempt to bring Major League Soccer to the masses of America. Didn’t they try and do that in the 70’s with Pelé? Let’s hope that if David decides he wants to act, he’ll steer clear of a remake of Victory.
There is much discussion on Becks age and how he’s “getting old.” The man is fricken 31… and he’s old.
Regardless, Becks and Posh will certainly turn our dreary eyes from Brad & Angelina and Tom & Katie (“Brangelina” and “Tomkat” for those of you who live for this). And maybe—just maybe—our eyes will turn to soccer. I would be more hesitant to think that America may get to like soccer, but there were three big articles on the sports page this morning on Barry Bonds’ latest testing positive for performance enhancing drugs… and next to each, there was an article on David Beckham. Who knows, this just may be what America needs.
Frankly, I don’t care what sport a guy plays, but if he looks like this—I’m watching!

Love this post! I am SO jealous that Posh and Becks are moving to America. Jealous of YOU, Chris, because you'll be so much closer to them than I will be. I hope he does have a positive effect on the popularity of soccer in the U.S., and I hope he has the last laugh, too. Hello David indeed.
David is cute!
Michelle -- You bet he is laughing. To the tune of $250 million dollars!
