How can anyone justify David Beckham being one of the best futbol players of our generation?

The guy is way overpaid and is basically stealing money from the LA franchise.
Since when get making wicked free kicks make you a superstar?
There are much better players that don’t get the same recognition. I think he owes it to Posh Spice.
You guys are missing the point of the question. I understand he is bringing recogintion of the game to the USA.

My question is WHY!?!?!
He isn’t even that good and certainly hasn’t made any impact to the sport in the USA (other than tricking fans into buying tickets to a games he doesn’t even play in).

Positive: They would prevent lots of missed calls. More penalties and cards would be deserved, thus more games would be fair.

Negative: They would slow the pace of the game significantly, similar to how they slow Football.

All the hype around David Beckham coming to America has sparked my interest in the game, but I’m so confused about clubs, teams, FIFA, and everything else. The only thing I do know is that getting the ball in the other team’s net is good, and "Footballer’s Wives" is a terribly awesome show that teaches you nothing!
All of these answers helped me a great deal.

I will be in BA on March 4th-10th of ’09….River Plate is playing against Arsenal on the 8th I believe. How do I go about getting tickets to the game and at the same time be totally safe at the game? Should I buy a tour online or buy tickets after I arrive in BA? Thanks.

I am asking more in terms of the length of the match if you were to go there at 5pm, what time would you be leaving the stadium. I am going to Barcelona but can only catch a game if I can make my 1030pm flight. The date is dec 20.

What is the significance of the 'shhh' symbol in futbol / soccer?

Guest Author — Mon, 29 Mar 2010 00:48:58 +0000

I have noticed on numerous occasions that futbol / soccer players will put one finger to their lips as if to say ‘shhh.’ It is often after a goal or some significant moment in the game. On one specific occasion, I know that it was an away game (meaning hostile audience).

Is there some significance behind this gesture other than the obvious universal language for ‘shhh’?
