He’s not a “football” star. He plays third world kick ball.

We can expect to see Dear Leader making a “surprise” visit to Iraq/Afghanistan at Thanksgiving or Christmas.

My bet is the troops would rather see “Spice”. The guy looks like an idiot with his tattoos. He does “bend ‘em” better than anyone but he speaks like a jerk and looks like one too. Cute kids.

I have a new respect for Beckham. He really is a great guy. Not only can he bend and place the ball better than almost anyone on the planet, he really is a good guy. Not sure of his politics, but visiting the troops on Thanksgiving says a lot about him to me.

I wish him well in the final this Sunday, I’ll be watching and rooting for him. And I will follow his brillant career as he goes off to Milan.
