Yay, Beckham Scores

Posted: April 4, 2008 in David Beckham, MLS, Soccer

Well I’m glad that that part of the plan to make soccer popular in the US is out of the way, as David Beckham finally scores his first MLS goal against the new San Jose Earthquakes, who, judging by the way they play, are on their way to becoming the worst team in the league. [...]

Manchester United are just made for these comebacks huh? A 5-3 thriller at White Hart Lane 6 years back….but not just any 5-3 game. Commentator: Peter Drury

You mean to tell me you bench guys (Beckham and Paul Robinson), ineffective for the entire tournament, at the last minute?! McLaren deserved to be fired, because his conservative play and his inability to play consistent football killed them. By the way, if anyone can explain to me how Man Utd lost to friggin Bolton, [...]

David Beckham to Join ESPN

I was hoping AA was kidding when he announced what David Beckham will do today. According to ESPN and reported on Awful Announcing, David Beckham will be a TV analyst for the MLS Primetime Thursday match up between LA Beckhams and Chivas USA. Beckham will be with Tommy Smyth, Eric “Can’t Shut Up” Wynalda, and [...]

Heck yeah, David Beckham is going to change US soccer in the span of 5 years. Looks like year 1 is off to a wonderful start. Haven’t won an MLS game with him, they lose in the Superliga final, and he gets injured during the final. Beckham strained his knee in the 30th minute as [...]

I attempted to watch the LA Beckhams vs. Chivas USA on ESPN. Two things happened that set me off: One, a freaking WNBA playoff overtime game ran over the first 4 minutes. Two, Dave O’Brien and Eric Wynalda were commentating. O’Brien (AKA Can’t Shut Up #1) decided to call Beckham “heroic” for travelling from England [...]

This Was a Good Game

Posted: August 20, 2007 in David Beckham, MLS, Soccer

Watch this classic video between the New York Red Bulls and the LA Beckhams. A very good match in front of 66,000 fans at Giants Stadium. At least 45,000 probably have zero idea of what soccer is. Irritating FSC Commentary: Max Bretos and Christopher Sullivan.

Yes, he scored, yes they won, yes it was a great free kick……and no it does not mean he’s changed everything. I’m going to potentially get hate mail type comments for this, but the fact that David Beckham scored doesn’t mean that it’s a sign of good things to come. It’s just one game, let’s [...]
