Love this commercial. I miss the occasional Galaxy game. Haven't gone in a while. That game was a total blowout though, my friend went. But now Beckham is off to AC Milan. His career pretty much ended after leaving Manchester United (which was right before I saw Man U vs. Club America at either the Home Depot Center or the Colosseum) Chelsea vs. AC Milan in L.A. this summer though I think. 2 European teams which I can't be sure about right now, been doing a lot of studying xD
dam! u guys had an advert 4 david beckham coming to america :O in england wen a foreign superstar comes here, we just think, ''he better fuckin win us something, or his ass is mine'' haha lol
im actually glad, because everyone else in the world loves football, all the best players in the world come to europe and england mainly, being english i like this ;)
hot video! my names Alexa, kinda feelin bored if any1 wants to join me on cam or wana chat i will be signed on at __ PLAY-CAM...dot...COM __ my user ID there is Alexa_nldxtk chat soon xx its FR33 to j0in! mwah
Yep, so I'm an idiot, the OFFICIAL MLS website is full of idiots, Forbes Magazine, the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, The New Yorks Times, The Houston Chronicle, ESPN Soccer, Sports Illustrated,Reuters - everyone is wrong and you are right. Forgive me, I didn't realize I was in the presence of such genius.
in other countries they teach america to be a continent but in the us they teach that there is north america and south america.. when someone says america, they're just referring to the USA
well thanksI wrotte this a while ago, I was just mad of it just getting blasted in your face, and allot of people not realizing that america can refer to something bigger.. well thannks for your feed back and you seem pretty informd., yeahh and beckam is ok just getting all thats all. ;)
ESPN deals, almost all games now sold-out, drawing more media attention, netting galaxy more radio coverage, drawing more global attention to the Galaxy (even if they are still not the best team in the US yet) and...oh yeah, making AEG and the MLS a shitload of money.
i thought this guy was suppose to change the whole perspective of soccer in the u.s? guess wat? eveyone here still could care less about soccer. why would a guy play in a country that cares as much about soccer as people in canada do.
and watching espn, i have yet to seea televised l.a game besides his 1st couple. also i have yet to see every seat filled in the front. but hey then again i dont follow soccer.
until he actually does something good, he has done nothing for this country
You don't follow soccer, yet you're commenting on it? What sort of buffoon does that? That would be like me never having never watched the NBA and then giving you my opinion on why the Celtics signing K-G was a terrible idea. Give me a break. The Galaxy have so far nearly or already HAS sold out every single game post-Beckham. ESPN, HDNet, and Fox have inked deals with the MLS/Galaxy, and if you, you know, actually WATCHED games, you'll see that A.) The stadium is full and B.) its televised
wow buddy u need to take a chill pill, it dont take an expert to never see a l.a gaxaly game apart from beckhams 1st game. also it dont take no expert to see those empty seats.
they mangled the song. the Beatles never wanted their music to be used in advertising. and here we are violating John and Georges dying wishes. sick. utterly sick.
i think i just vommited all over my keyboard. what a fuckin sell out. and on top of it, he has the nerve to make a commercial like this? he should just stick to modelling.
or rooney or gerrard or own and others ..... god stop complaining.... i cant believe he went to play for u's .. ur just ungrateful most off yiz .... he's a fantastic footy player.... and usually scores well 4 england
The short lived Beckham phenomenon was a bit like a stream in the dessert. It was something to look at for a while, but with a little time it evaporated and disappeared, proving yet again that soccer will never be anything more than a fad in the US, with interest coming along once every four years at most, or the next time another has been metrosexual Englishman hops across the Atlantic.
The shot of all the people in the (obviously English) pub looking suicidal is cringeworthy. I hope Americans don't think he's actually POPULAR or that anyone gives a shit that he left Europe.
Little does Beckham know that Americans, as an entity, give very few fucks about soccer. Now if he joined the Oakland Raiders as a kicker, we'd have something to cheer about (We as in "they"...as in Oakland Raiders fans...nevermind).
Well I have two reasons. My first reason was to let everyone know how much I hate that media tool you so call a soccer player. My second reason was just to have some Canadian numbnut dumbass ask me why I was looking at Beckham videos. As if I had to answer to every question anyone asks me while on the internet. So fuck you and Beckham.
I hate Beckham. Him joining the LA Galaxy only proves that he's a media guinea pig. And he's stupid, he lived in Spain for 4 years and didn't learn how to properly speak the Spanish language. I'm from Argentina and I lived in USA. At 2 and a half years I was there, as you can see, I've pretty much got it down. Fuck you Beckham.
i dont agree with this spot..:S in spain we have a lot of great football players..so..we dont miss him..:S ok hes gorgeus!n ilov him but..his wife iss sooo stupid?..!! spain dont smell(i dont know how it write) lyk a garlic..so bye byee!
Actually, rugby-football came from a game started by the private school boys at eton, rugby, winchester etc etc. As you can probably guess, 'rugby' was rugbys version of the game, whereas winchester prefered 'winky'. Football was infact first played in a newcastle town, where the uppers hated the lowers and a game was played to settle their differences. The entire town got involved, kicking not only the ball shaped object, but also each other.
soccer? shut the fuck up stupid fat "american" yeah cuz u can't even use your terms right , how ignorant and blind u guys are to the world believing that your gay sports are better than real football, get it foot=using your feet ball=a ball not a weird looking brown piece of shit, lol u play against yourselves and and say we're world champs lol retards
People won't take you serious when you call them ignorant if you can't even spell out the word "you". Also, I doubt you've ever even tried playing basketball or american football, so the ignorant here is you, and judging by your grammar you're also the retard. Congratulations.
LOL what do you think the #2 most popular sport in the world is Soxas? Its Baseball. Its played all across the world, focused primarily in the Americas and in Asia. And where do you think Football came from? Its derived from English Rugby. Where did Rugby come from? Soccer. So..basically, you can thank Soccer for your precious Football. Stop making the rest of us Americans look like idiots; basically, try and be the complete opposite of how you usually are. :)

i think number 2 is tennis, it is played in many countries (not in poor countries without tennis courts though) baseball is only america, and a tiny bit in japan and korea
lol no..as far a little league goes..its world wide..and little league eventually converts into the MLB..so if you play for the netherlands..and your in the world series little league , they will prolly talk to you about a contract..so it kinda runs all over europe...south america...north america...and most of the world..
ok i wasnt goin to say anything, but seeing as you said all that shit about me before i will inform you that baseball is a minority sport in most countries beside america. They might play in those countries, but it is only played by few, football is played by many in every country. If you use the netherlands as an example, what do you think their national sport is baseball? no of course, it is football.
the only reason futbol "soccer" is the #1 sport in the world because every country has a team futbol would suck if there was 10 countries that had the sport like baseball or football
and why do you think every country has a football team? because it's the world's most popular sport. why is that so? because it's simple to play; all you need is a ball and a flat field.
yea because thats how popular football (and yes football not soccer plz only 2 countries called it soccer and thats scotland and america and scotland stopped ages ago) is your American Football is a steal from Wales where it is the same game faster pace but you can't pass forwards and you say well every country has 10 teams your not even close every country as about 100 if not 1000's each if american football was so good it would be the same way but it isn't it just isn't
if they were real life people, I'd feel really bad for the girl who had collected all the Beckham Real Madrid collection and then he moved to America. Now she has got to start over.
graboid ur a typical american asshole who doesnt know jackshit bout the world around him, soccer, the REAL football was invented hundreds of years before america was even a country, besides the first " football" game in america, where the hall of fame is, was played with a round ball and goals, redneck
dude, don't rag on my country okay? that graboid idiot is wrong but so are you. i like soccer and so do most people i know. most americans know about the world, our media is just an asswipe and only portrays the dumb "blond" bitches, or the asshole "fat cat". gimme a break with that "americans don't know shit"
Im american i was born in Oakland, CA im a raiders fan, i love gridiron football, i love america, i want to go to the University of Georgia, im embarrassed by idiots like him, and i know how stupid our media is, FOX news, need i say more?
stop starting shit over the internet please...no offense makes people look like little pussies...they have to go on the internet to make them selves feel tough...not saying you..just saying people like you..lol
hey asshole?...dont like it, leave it..you say you love this country....but then your going to make obvious fucking ignorant stereotypes as in all americans are rednecks...shut that shit up
thats the perfect example of American mentality. Buy the top 20, it is a sport that we can buy victory they will think. Football is a sport of passion and skill, footballers are made because of the love of the game, they arent made in the gym like most american atheletes. This is not a personall attack on you blair9123, but what i am saying is this is why america is hated, because of these views. The rest of the world achieves success from hard work, america achieves it with money. Sickening.
your just talking out of your ass...you listen to the media and come on here n base everything you say off of that. you dont know this country, so stop judging it like you do
you dont know the rest of the world, maybe i dont live in the us, but at least i care about the rest of the world, im not saying american people are bad, im saying that to be respected by other countries, they need to stop going on like they are the only people, because that is how you sound in your comments
how do you know wtf i think..exactly what im talking about when i say you speak out of your ass..i do care about the whole world..and americans dont go on like htere the only people and if you have lived you here youd know thats not true
im not saying that i know what you think, im sayin that by your comments you are sounding like that, maybe you arent like that and just bad at getting your point across, i dont know
sounds like your jealous.... im not american, and i have another point it wasn't america which brought him it was a football club and its like any other transfere. america is hated mainly because people are jealous of how much money they got they havent really done much if you think about it
Soccer won't come even remotely close to being as popular as football.soccer and football are the same game.you mean american football that game where you throw and carry rarely does the foot touch the ball.
This little ad is terrible, showing how the Americans' don't give a sh*t about England or Europe. Seeing all the people cry, and then all the Americans happy as hell?? Wow that's is horrible.
I disagree Shadowkiller. If you follow Soccer/Football whatsoever in Europe, moment a well-regarded athlete gets traded from one good team to another well-regarded team, fans go crazy, even moreso than Americans. What do you think the reaction was in Spain when Beckham signed up with Real Madrid?
haha this commercial cracks me up, David Beckham was a DECENT player in his prime, but he never was a GREAT player, he is never even been the best player of the world. But i believe he can change soccer in the States in a positive way. Now the world actually knows an athlete in the US haha
yeah its so terrible, poor little us so concerned that the rest of the world doesnt like our sports. o wait... we care about that about as much as we care about soccer.
that makes no sense. you just said he was never a great player. if he was never a great player, then there is no need to say he was never the best player in the world. duh
haha you got my point...but Americans treat Beckham as a God 250 million dollars is more than you pay to any of your athletes, nfl nba mlb...and then americans say they "don't care about soccer"...plzz
Thats because they hope he will popularize soccer which will never happen. Pele couldn't do it 25 years ago what makes them think beckham is going to now. Soccer won't come even remotely close to being as popular as football.
Becham got a little over 35 mill. from the Galaxy. A-Rod from the yanks is getting over 90 mill and Peyton manning got a 150 mill. contract deal for over 8 years.
haha this commercial cracks me up, David Beckham was a DECENT player in his prime, but he never was a GREAT player, he is never even been the best player of the world. But i believe he can change soccer in the States in a positive way. Now the world actually knows and athlete in the US haha
I think he will do america and improve the state of football(soccer) in the MLS but LA Galaxy are not doing to welll and beckham will not win a game on his own, he needs people to put his crosses in the back of the net and it does not look like galaxy have a player doing this right now
this is the dumbest commercial ever, who honestly still watches Beckham play, i mean he is still best free kick taker of all time in my book, but who cares if he left to come america, people cry, yet he didnt even do anything in spain....get over it people his career is waning and nobody cares
Fuck u Beckham is the best n second of all ur just mad bc u cant play soccer. if u would look at soccer in america u could tell its getting more popular and more ppl r playing. MLS, World Cup BECOMING MORE POPULAR In our country. N its GREAT that one of the worlds best is comin to play in the US because its only gonna make soccer bigger. n sooner then later when ronaldo is done with riding bench on A.C. milian he is gonna come play for NY red bulls.
who gives a shit about the "beckham's" seriously?!??! like fucking americans give a rats about soccer NO1 in this country gives a rats ass about fucking soccer that man and his prissy ass girl are nothing but HOLLYWOOD ROYALTY .
Great commerical and awesome Beatles cover song. However, I wish ESPN had done its homework. If they had, then they would have found out that Spain does not have "Alto" signs like Mexico. Spain uses the international "Stop" sign just like all other European Community countries.

Actually, rugby-football came from a game started by the private school boys at eton, rugby, winchester etc etc. As you can probably guess, 'rugby' was rugbys version of the game, whereas winchester prefered 'winky'. Football was infact first played in a newcastle town, where the uppers hated the lowers and a game was played to settle their differences. The entire town got involved, kicking not only the ball shaped object, but also each other.

i think number 2 is tennis, it is played in many countries (not in poor countries without tennis courts though) baseball is only america, and a tiny bit in japan and korea

lol no..as far a little league goes..its world wide..and little league eventually converts into the MLB..so if you play for the netherlands..and your in the world series little league , they will prolly talk to you about a contract..so it kinda runs all over europe...south america...north america...and most of the world..
blair9123 4 years ago
ok i wasnt goin to say anything, but seeing as you said all that shit about me before i will inform you that baseball is a minority sport in most countries beside america. They might play in those countries, but it is only played by few, football is played by many in every country. If you use the netherlands as an example, what do you think their national sport is baseball? no of course, it is football.

the only reason futbol "soccer" is the #1 sport in the world because every country has a team futbol would suck if there was 10 countries that had the sport like baseball or football
soxas5675 4 years ago
and why do you think every country has a football team? because it's the world's most popular sport. why is that so? because it's simple to play; all you need is a ball and a flat field.

yea because thats how popular football (and yes football not soccer plz only 2 countries called it soccer and thats scotland and america and scotland stopped ages ago) is your American Football is a steal from Wales where it is the same game faster pace but you can't pass forwards and you say well every country has 10 teams your not even close every country as about 100 if not 1000's each if american football was so good it would be the same way but it isn't it just isn't

graboid ur a typical american asshole who doesnt know jackshit bout the world around him, soccer, the REAL football was invented hundreds of years before america was even a country, besides the first " football" game in america, where the hall of fame is, was played with a round ball and goals, redneck

dude, don't rag on my country okay? that graboid idiot is wrong but so are you. i like soccer and so do most people i know. most americans know about the world, our media is just an asswipe and only portrays the dumb "blond" bitches, or the asshole "fat cat". gimme a break with that "americans don't know shit"

only way america would get into soccer is if..they buy out like the top 20 players or some shit lol..wouldnt be suprised if they did
blair9123 4 years ago
thats the perfect example of American mentality. Buy the top 20, it is a sport that we can buy victory they will think. Football is a sport of passion and skill, footballers are made because of the love of the game, they arent made in the gym like most american atheletes. This is not a personall attack on you blair9123, but what i am saying is this is why america is hated, because of these views. The rest of the world achieves success from hard work, america achieves it with money. Sickening.

I disagree Shadowkiller. If you follow Soccer/Football whatsoever in Europe, moment a well-regarded athlete gets traded from one good team to another well-regarded team, fans go crazy, even moreso than Americans. What do you think the reaction was in Spain when Beckham signed up with Real Madrid?

haha this commercial cracks me up, David Beckham was a DECENT player in his prime, but he never was a GREAT player, he is never even been the best player of the world. But i believe he can change soccer in the States in a positive way. Now the world actually knows an athlete in the US haha

Thats because they hope he will popularize soccer which will never happen. Pele couldn't do it 25 years ago what makes them think beckham is going to now. Soccer won't come even remotely close to being as popular as football.

Becham got a little over 35 mill. from the Galaxy. A-Rod from the yanks is getting over 90 mill and Peyton manning got a 150 mill. contract deal for over 8 years.

I think he will do america and improve the state of football(soccer) in the MLS but LA Galaxy are not doing to welll and beckham will not win a game on his own, he needs people to put his crosses in the back of the net and it does not look like galaxy have a player doing this right now
