Hey I AM a Beckham fangirl – a FOOTBALL fangirl. Hmmm, Tony, what makes you think Beckham’s got a “pretty face” anyway? What have you been looking at while I’ve been watching his brilliant crosses all these years?

That last “ladies” comment made me realize something. This blog has been blessedly free of Beckham fangirls. Thank you, ladies (and gentlemen, for that matter), for seeing the big picture!!

I know you ladies can care less how he plays as long as he has that pretty face.. As far as playing soccer, so far zero goals… Pathetic..

Because hell yeah. We “ladies” couldn’t possibly care about the game or anything.

What’s that round thingie they’re kicking around again?

I guess we’ll see if Beckham is worth the money next year.. I know you ladies can care less how he plays as long as he has that pretty face.. As far as playing soccer, so far zero goals… Pathetic..

I’m with you on kids and Cobi, Laurie and Jenl, and also worried about the coming cuts. Hoping a rare flash of sense causes league to raise payroll cap.

Tony, save your decision on whether Beckham’s a waste until you’ve seen him play. I only questioned whether he should be on the pitch with an injury that keeps him from doing that.

Here’s a thought: given the rash of groin/hamstring/ muscle injuries, should not the Galaxy go the way of Euro clubs and hire a strength/fitness coach? Someone whose sole job is to whip their butts into shape, and keep ‘em there? I just don’t here of Euro clubs suffering as many injuries as we did, and many of them play 2-3 times a week during CL season, UEFA season, etc. Just a thought…

More than anything I wanted it for the “kids” on the team, for Cobi, and for Cannon.

Oh, Jen, me too! That’s it exactly. I’m just hoping none of the “kids” get cut before next year, so they’ll get to see what it feels like to be on a real team.

Sad thing is, though, I think the Galaxy may have to sell a bunch of the good younger players to keep Landon. Randolph’s salary, for one, will have to go way up. Ty Harden and Josh Tudela too.

Oh, I was on the edge of my seat hoping, just hoping. More than anything I wanted it for the “kids” on the team, for Cobi, and for Cannon. God bless Cannon. I never realized how nervous Hartman made me feel until I watched Cannon for a season. Hartman was very good. Still is. But Cannon just never makes the wrong decision. The man’s positioning is as accurate as a goal-scoring Beckham free kick.

And ditto to Chris on getting a target forward. But only if he runs too. Anyone remember Hermosillo from way back? If he wasn’t passed to perfectly he made little to no effort. I want a target forward who is scrappy and accurate. That’s what I want.

Cannon was the only good player out there. THe golden boy Beckham can’t even score one goal. Looks like the Galaxy wasted millions on him. Besides Cannon, the team played aweful.. Better luck next year..
