The really sad thing is that we Americans, as yet, haven't embraced football the way the rest of the world has.

That's what I was thinking too. Sadly, this will not work.

I agree - First of all, Beckham is past his prime. Secondly, one man cannot sell an entire sport (though Michael Jordan came close).

There's precedent, too: they tried it with that Brazilian dude with the hair. Didn't work then, not gonna work now. They're throwing money away, the eediots.

Ok iamcool. I have a kinda weird confession to make. I just figured out that I've been a member for 30 days, and every single day I come on. And every single day your avatar mesmerizes me for some reason, and I find myself spending like 2 minutes looking at it and watching it play over and over. That means that I have spent an hour of my life watching your avatar.

They wouldn't pay him that if they didn't think they would get that amount in tickets/sponsorships. Apparently, there are enough of us crazy Americans who are paying the big bucks to go watch these games ($880 for each center sideline season ticket- 20 games.)

Umm...duh we're crazy!! Look at how much a lot of those sports guys make..it's fu*king absurd! This is even more ridiculous though becuase like AP said, no one even watches that here and I don't think this is gonna make them either. You can't just force people to watch it. It doesn't matter who is playing.
I'm also way over everyone talking about how hot he is. He probably goes to the salon more than me and he sleeps with a freakin' whorey lollipop. Let's move on.
