Hehehehe, this is under "football".

Beckham is a pretty nuts player, although I thought he might be losing it a bit with this stint at Real madrid.

$50 million/year?
Who's the moneypit behind the Galaxy?

Ugo Ihemelu should never have to pay for dinner again.

It guess Posh wanted to work on her tan!!!!

beckham is not what he used to be, but it is good for him to come over to the states

what are you people talking about - who is beckam?

Posh Spice's husband

Oh - I thought he was maybe an athlete the way everyone was talking.

...yawn.

Posh Spice was the least interesting of the Spice Girls

haha, I never ever thought I would see a conversation about the spice girls on a SMU fan board. we are so diverse......?????

He's a brilliant athlete. Not physically what he once was, but he is considered one of the world's greatest for a reason. Even if he can't do physically what he once did, his mere presence will make everyone else on the Galaxy improve exponentially. Financially, this is a horrible move for the team and for MLS, but in terms of making the L.A. players (and MLS in general) a better league, it's an absolute no-brainer.

Actually, it is a brilliant move for MLS and the LA Galaxy.

LA hasn't even had an official press conference, and yesterday they sold close to 2,000 season tickets. They will sell out every single game in their 27,000 seat stadium. They also just got mentioned on every single front page IN THE WORLD. It would cost a lot more money for that type of advertising. People are going to be wearing Galaxy jersies all over the world now.

MLS finally found a way to get on the front page. When FC Dallas signs Davids next week and NY signs Ronaldo, the true soccer fans in the states (and there are a LOT of them) are going to come out to the games.

This move will do MORE for soccer in the continental US than Gretzky to LA did for Hockey here. MLS will be more highly covered than the NHL by the end of 2008.

This belongs in "other"
