What Is This Soc-cer You Speak Of?

Now, I don't like being that asshole, but here it goes...


I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO.


I have a very select number of friends who enjoy soccer, (It's because I live in America.) and these few lost souls really thought that David Beckham would make a difference in the American level of interest in soccer. I even heard some of the sportswriters that are allowed to yell on ESPN on a daily basis lauding Beckham as the second coming of Pele playing in America. (Remeber though, Pele only helped soccer out for a handful of years, then we went right back to not caring.)

Well, all of these people were wrong. We still don't care about soccer as a nation, and Becks wants to head back over to Italy to play for AC Milan. He's tired of playing in what amounts to a minor league as far as soccer goes around the world. Let's face it, great players play in the EPL, Bundesliga, and the other leagues around Europe.

I say just let Beckham go. He deserves to go play with people who are on his level, and to play in front of people that give a shit. We don't care, we never will, and future soccer stars will stay away from the US, and its because Beckham couldn't do it.
