Beckham to LA Galaxy.

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

He's a nob. Claims he wants to play for England again...

The people in charge of letting that happen wont take him seriously now.

Still though, it's not hard to see why you'd give up sitting on the bench to come and be treated like some sort of savior even though you're washed up. Not to mention the fact the increased advertising revenue he can pull in on top of the quarter billion dollar contract and the inevitable-but-you-still-want-to-watch-the-car-crash acting career of one Posh Spice.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad about this.

On the one hand this increased publicity can bring new energy to U.S. Soccer.

On the other hand it could repulse a ton of people from what they think is a gimmick.
