The Beckhams

AEG president Timothy J. Leiweke said: "David Beckham will have a greater impact on soccer in America than any athlete has ever had on a sport globally. "David is truly the only individual that can build the 'bridge' between soccer in America and the rest of the world."

Who are AEG - are they putting up the money? Whatever - they are run by a nutter!

I laugh when I hear people still saying Becks should be playing for England. Well, none of the leading clubs in Europe want him - even though he comes with all that marketing money!

And nobody wants that talentless wife of his either.

B*st*rds.

Do they not have enough already?!! £128m deal, set to be LA "A listers".

B*st*rds. B*st*rds. B*st*rds.

One consolation love, your taxes aren't supporting him.

"The deal means Beckham will be earning 500 times more each week than most of his team-mates at Los Angeles. "

That'll go down well, especially when they find out he's no Ronaldo or Zidane.
