In amongst all the 'David Beckham has gone to see' comment pieces, I found this from last year.

It's a bit of a rant, but this guy seems to still rate Beckham

Well, your loss is our gain. ;) I'm looking forward to seeing him play in the MLS - he can do a lot of good for the sport here, and perhaps broaden its appeal beyond the current Latin American immigrant fan base.

The 10 Americans who follow soccer will be thrilled about this "news."

Beckham is still on the world's best players. I always found that he never got credit for being the creative passer that he is. I still think Manchester never recovered from him leaving, until this year of course.

I heard this morn that Simon Cowell wants Victoria on American Idol.

No one wants to spend their golden years being critiqued by idiots

That is so true.

I'm disappointed so many people think that David Beckham is over the hill.

People forget that the best soccer players could play as late as 39-40 years old! Beckham is only 31.
