I'm actually thinking that the $10 million that LA/MLS got for his last extension of a loan to Milan was a down payment for the next move.Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009896468343968678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-44918484971263675642009-07-14T15:04:29.921-04:002009-07-14T15:04:29.921-04:00So is Beckham still playing for LA or what?

All you needed to see was 1 Serie A match he was in to know that he was mailing it in for a paycheck here before he found out he could make the England 2010 squad. Absolutely deplorable.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to reading the book. Should be good stuff.WhiteSpeedReceiverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15854082988072717474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-49375340635091599552009-07-14T13:43:35.142-04:002009-07-14T13:43:35.142-04:00as I have such strong personal feelings against Da...<i>as I have such strong personal feelings against David Beckham</i><br /><br />Thou dost protest too much.The NY Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07051102990736064962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-71677992846437306212009-07-14T13:41:46.274-04:002009-07-14T13:41:46.274-04:00In the wake of all of this, I'm curious about ...In the wake of all of this, I'm curious about what the fan reaction to Becks will be--not just in LA but on the road as well. I'm not quite sure if fans of US soccer will close ranks around Landycakes or if their general disdain for Lando will make them side with Goldenballs (or if their desire to support MLS will make them give Beckham a pass). I certainly hope there won't be the same level of love fest on the road that his first seasons saw.Goathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17380632310675126766noreply@blogger.com
