(he wont go back?) lemme no thnk you all!

I don't see why they are paying him that much...I mean soccer isn't a big deal in the states. I would rather have him play in a place where soccer is more of a popular sport...somewhere where he would be appreciated. Its like having Michael Jordan play basketball in Japan...its a waste.

Madrid tried to find a loophole to keep him with them but its been blown out f the water, he is without doubt playing the rest of his football in the USA. The reason why he wants to play in America IS because its not a large sport, Football is massive all places bar the States he wants to be the man responsible for getting the USA into it as well.

The latest quotes from Beckham from sky sports

I personally think that is crazy money but is a great coup for the US league none the less.

He's going to score 40 goals in his first season.

Fair play to the man.

I don't think he can popularize the sport here in the states on his own. He may bring sell some more seats and get more viewers but I doubt soccer will become as big as american football, basketball, or baseball.

Its going to take more then Beckham thats for sure.
