bend it like beckham?

David Beckham has played in only ten matches since June 1 (2 International Friendlies, and matches for LA, although only five of them were actually MLS games, and played the full 90 in only 3 of those matches). When you compare that with the 22 games that Juan Pablo Angel (only a few months younger than Becks) played the full 90 for the New York Red Bulls over the same period of time, it seems like Beckham's days as a professional footballer may be numbered. So the question is this: Are we more likely to see Beckham booting extra points and field goals as an NFL novelty act (although not doing kickoff duty because that would involve running and maybe even hitting)? Acting in Hollywood and making James Franco and Paul Walker look like two of the greatest actors in the history of cinema? Coaching/broadcasting football in some way shape or form?


Whenever the hell I last posted: First off, I have to say, what a catch. Thank you Brett Favre, I can go to bed and not have to wonder what's going to happen in the game. The winner is Nicole, the only one to post an actual answer. And I'll even give Becca a runner-up for posting something.

Nicole:
Absolutely, without a doubt, hands down Christine. Now, to say this movie is awful (which it is) is an understatement. The car has a life of its own, attacks people, and then repairs itself overnight? Okay Mr. King, if you say so. Run out of ideas? That's too bad. Now, with that said, this movie is so awful, that it's in fact hilarious. It's actually a pretty good first date movie to rent when all you want to do is pop in some "scary" movie as an excuse to cuddle and then just start making out once you lose interest.

Moot point. He's already acting. My current favorite trilogy is the Goal! series. Becks has a cameo in the first movie (Goal!: The Dream Begins) and has top billing in the sequel (Goal! II: Living The Dream). I don't know how big of a part he'll have in the final installment, but I'll let you know.

If you watch the following link, Mr. Golden Balls says he's not into acting (at 1:10 of the video), but I'm sure that has changed now that he's in LA. Everyone who lives there gets sucked into the acting vortex somehow.

I have no doubt that he will do some match broadcasts, but you know he doesn't actually need to do anything after his career ends. That Wife Spice of his can support the family even after all of the ridiculous clothing and jewelry is paid off (David's AND Victoria's).

Oh! Also, since Posh is BFFs with Katie Holms, I bet Tom is already giving David acting advice. (I may or may not need to change my pants after imagining Beckham doing a Top Gun remake.)

David Beckham won't act, because it will get in the way of his Brazilian waxes and his vaginal rejuvenation.

Also, James Franco, due to involvement with Freaks and Geeks and Knocked Up ("if this is one of those fuckin joke shows I'm not into it."), should not be cited anywhere near Paul Walker. And he was actually really good on Freaks and Geeks.
