Beckham Signs Mega Deal with LA Galaxy
13 01 2007Beckham says his move to the US has nothing to do with money or celebrity. I’m inclined to believe him. David Beckham doesn’t need the money. I doubt he could spend all the money he gets in royalties alone in his life-time I hope he got some of that $250 million up front because I doubt he’s going to see most of it.

So what is it all about? Huzza (that’s my husband) suggested a couple of things and it clicked.
Remember the summer? During the World Cup? Who did Becks hang out with during the World Cup? None other than TomKat. (aka Tom and Katie Holmes).
Kat was ordered to hang out with Posh. Which of course she did. In fact they became – apparently – bosom pals (the bosoms being all on Posh’s side of course). And now we have Becks revealing that he had spoken to actor Tom Cruise about his decision to move to the US.
“I was on the phone to him (Cruise) for about an hour last night (Thursday) and an hour the night before,” said Beckham. “Obviously I asked him for his advice because he is a very wise man and a very good friend of mine. It’s going to be a big help for us to have friends when we arrive in LA.”
Hmm. Won’t it just.
Watch out Becks. Personally, I wish you well in the football. You’re probably never going back to England, so this is a great career move for you. But I’d be more careful of your new best friend. I suspect very much that TomKat’s on a recruitment drive for the Scientology Church. Yeah, we all know it’s drivel, but folks believe that shit. So I’m betting you and Posh will be Scientologists before you can say “ Battlefield Earth” – which since TomKat are your new best friends you’ve probably watched 100 times already.
And just think what that’ll do for TomKat’s credibility – in one fell swoop he’ll have a foot in Europe. He’ll be promoted. And have you to thank for it.
Original story from BBC Sport
have you noticed all of cruises films are the same, man i good at his job, loses his knack, finds a woman, gets back his knack and he is better than ever..

The Labour Party received thousands of pounds from an offshoot of Scientology, it has been revealed
They allowed the charity, the Association for Better Living and Education (ABLE), to take a stall at the party’s annual conference in Manchester.
Exhibitors at the conference have to pay up to £13,500. The stand was part of an extensive lobbying operation by Scientology members to promote its drug treatment programme, Narconon, and the criminal rehabilitation scheme Criminon.
I just hope Beckham is not trying to break into the movies. He’s a terrible actor. Same goes for Posh. I reckon they’ll just swan around LA for a year making public appearances and sign up to more branding deals.
i really believe that becks is going there to bring football to a new level in the states. if what ac milan said is true, that becks rejected a move there, then it makes more sense, because a move to ac milan would look better on his resume than la galaxy…
the more people slag becks, the more i seem to root for him.
Since “Goldenballs” (cool nickname, eh?) has the brains of a toadstool, the reports are starting to circulate that this is all down to Skeletor’s desire to relocate her hybrid alien/fungi brood to LA “because it’s best for the family” (riiiight). Skinny control-freak dead-haired exomorphs always get their way - and the bonus, in her mind, is that any senoritas Becks is slipping it to in Iberia will be 8 time zones away — short-sighted of her, of course: David’s going to be up and down like the Assyrian Empire with all that blonde hardbodied SoCal tottie … look for Posh to be up the spout by autumn; she’s not too bright either - a baby won’t keep him from straying until she wises up and hires a MALE nanny.
Seeing as I am more of the opinion that the REAL reason for the move is all down to the Svengali-like control of his new girlfriend Tomasina Cruise, look for these wealthy nouveau-riche “caravan trash” to start attending Thetan Knitting Circles.
And I assume Goldenballs will play a little sokkah. He certainly will raise the profile of footie in North America (hey hey, Toronto has a team! I couldn’t care less! I prefer watching paint dry to most soccer) but it will likely be a nine-day wonder - I’m old enough to remember when Pele came and played in the USA - it didn’t make soccer the #1 pro sport in the US. Or #2. Or #3#4#5 … I think it was still firmly behind stock car racing, professional log rolling and hermaphrodite mud-wrestling by the time Brujo Pele went back to South America and started curing lepers and making time move backward.
It should be gloriously classless. And only fair - the US conned the Brits into taking that greasy skank Madonna - it’s only fair the favour’s returned. I’m sure L. Ron Hubbard is overjoyed deep in whatever volcano his Medichlorians are swimming around in ….
LOL!! HTH - so true.. and too funny
She’s got him just where she wants him - or so she thinks.
@mercurior - that Narconon had to withdraw from several schools - after the schools found out that they’d been hiding their Scientology origins….
