Who said Beckham won’t play defense?
One thing even the haters have to admit is that Beckham plays for the shirt — the England shirt. Talking about how you travel thousands of miles for your national team in order to white-wash how you shafted your club team makes even less sense than a Spice Girls reunion.
“I did not shoot Joel. For proof, let me introduce you to Bob, whom I have never shot.” Luckily, he’s good looking.
“I’m an honest person” . . . except for all the parts where I said I was dedicated to developing soccer in the US. Oh, I’m sorry, your American football terminology has confused me again. I said “the sport of soccer,” but I meant, “my fanancial holdings and Q-quotient.”
Beckham made money for the Galaxy hand over fist — too bad they can’t use any of it to buy their way out of mediocrity. How many years will it take to repair the damage Becks did?
Sadly, probably only 2 or 3.

That is just odd that he would use always playing for his country as a defense of his own professionalism and commitment. Tons of ‘merican rednecks who can’t hold down a job are easy proof that you can love your country and still be a crappy employee.
