Thanks Guys!! - mls

Could the timing of Beckham arriving in America be any better? Here's the recent headlines in case you missed them:

NFL: Michael Vick Indicted on dog fighting charges

NBA: NBA referee being investigated for affecting outcomes

MLBA: Bud Selig not present as Barry Continues chase (not to mention steroids)

If soccer was really going to catch on in America you couldn't plan a better setting around you in terms of other sports. Don't get me wrong, i'm not rooting against other sports, but i am rooting for soccer.

Not to mention, David Beckham is one of the most stand-up guys in sports. A true family-man who takes prides in representing his country, (96 appearances for the England National Team not to mention he was captain for over 50 of those games), seems to have a strong marriage and is just a great ambassador for to the sport. He reminds me of Tiger Woods more than Jordan.

Yea, go Soccer!
