Two great articles by Ives with even more information about the deal, and Garber addresses the salary cap space:

This opens up a big chunk of change for our Galaxy. Garber said Becks only counts for half of his cap hit.

Beckham must think we’re REALLY stupid. Can we start a “Boo Beckham Bandwagon”? Pass out “BECKHAM SUCKS” shirts before each home match?

“Also, I read something in one of the British tabloids (can’t remember which one, and of course you have to consider the source) that said Bruce said that if the team is performing well in July, Beckham may not play.”

I’ve seen Bruce’s style as a GM/Coach firsthand, and I can actually believe that he would say and do this. Whether or not AEG would come down on him hard is another story…

Who does Becks play for in the friendly? Milan 1st half, Galaxy in the second?

…and remember that we play in a young league with a salary cap that is the equivalent of the minimum salary of the lowliest benchwarmer on real Superclubs. Let’s just win some games … Let’s play some futbol.

Amen. Walk before you run, learn to fall before you learn to fly. Lets hope for a MLS season of quality play, that’s a milestone that will mean a lot.

cheers

Wouldn’t that be an interesting end to the saga?
