In football (soccer) news, David Beckham scored his first goal on American soil, and on his first free kick. Galaxy fans got to watch him bend it into the net as he has so many times before. Even though he's got a spotty International record recently with dead ball situations, I still think he's one of the best spot kickers in the world.
Although his naming to the England squad for the upcoming friendly does have some people surprised, as fans, especially those in Toronto have witnessed Beckham sitting on the bench with injuries. Fans in Vancouver who have been promised a friendly featuring the world class player must be wondering if he can handle the crazy schedule and flights and still remain fit to play well not only for his team but for the national side as well. I always have people asking me what the big deal is about Becks, a lot of it is the media circus and hype that surrounds him. For example, just typing his name into Google returns only three images of him actually playing football out of the 20 that initially produces.
