MLSnet pees in its pants
Yep!
Talk about excited. The folks over at MLSnet.com the official website for MLS, are as giddy as a schoolgirl about boy-band Beckham's arrival that they've actually put up a countdown timer to allow us to know when he hits our fair shores.
Like a sun coming out from behind the clouds, Beckham arrives.
Don't get me wrong. I'm a huge Beckham fan. Wore the t-shirt, took crap from England fans when they blamed him for last year's World Cup problems. Explained patiently to said blind English fans that Beckham was involved with every remotely interesting play last summer. Wiped beer off face.
BUT! I don't go around calibrating my watch based on his arrival time. For fuck's sake, people. Get a grip. Buy your ticket for the August 26th match and call it a day. Get an All-Star Game ticket just in case. (The latest word, from the Denver Post, is that Becks will be at the ASG, but will not play).
And now we've read ESPN is planning a "Beckham Cam" to follow his every million-dollar nose pick. That's just super!
