    Headed to Fulham? :dance:

    Beckham will leave MLS after the Cup.

    All in all (is all we are), he did a fine job in MLS and helped grow the league and deserves props for his service. He didn't 'mail it in' during his time in MLS which was contrary to my initial gut reaction when he signed. Query: where the hell is he going now? There are still quality minutes left in those legs and I can't see him hanging it up.

    All in all he didnt "mail it in". There were times when that was highly questionable but he was called out on it, as he should be (which was a healthy sign for the league), and he responded well. Glad and thankful that he came to MLS.

    Nevzter, Cleveland is a hotbed of indoor soccer. I'm pretty sure Becks is headed here to prove himself on an indoor pitch where his legendary crossing ability will be rendered meaningless. Biggest challenge of his life . . . but welcome to living in Cleveland. Our fine school systems and water parks for the kids hwill be big hits with the Mrs.

    I bet he ends up in Australia or China.

    Yep, it's all about global branding.
