David Beckham made his debut for the Los Angeles Galaxy Saturday night in a friendly against FA Cup winners Chelsea.Chelsea won the match 1-0 in a game that was really not as close as the score indicated. The Galaxy did not seem to have many scoring chances at all, and the few they had they squandered. (Just like watching the USA in the World Cup!)
You don't really need to pay David Beckham $250 million to lose 1-0 to Chelsea. You do, however, need to pay David Beckham $250 million to get this many fans and media to show up.
(By the way, Posh Spice, Eva Longoria, and Katie Holmes were all in the same box at a soccer game for at least two hours. This is the recipe for some of the worst conversations of all time. We can all thank God they weren't miked up.)
(Also, I was secretly hoping that Posh Spice would get caught on camera doing blow at some point during the game.)
I honestly didn't think that Beckham would see playing time, but sure enough, with about twelve minutes left in the game, here comes Becks....
... and then, minutes later, down goes Becks.
In the end, everything turned out okay. The Galaxy earned a hard-fought loss against an actual quality
I'm guessing that now Beckham will be able to rest up his ankle, and start acclimating to the life of a professional athlete living in the United States.

OMG!
Someone should pay you $250M as this series of graphics has just peaked my interest in soccer more than Beckham's arrival!
Well done again Mr. Grimes!
I am quickly becoming a fan of your work.
good work Grimey. Please say "Guv-Nah" Good stuff
invisable plate of cookies = classic.
Simply delightful. Like a nice plate of bangers and mash.
Good job sir!! I now have 1 more RSS feed to waste my time at work.
Although the caption in the 3rd picture should have said "my vagina", because we all know he is a pussy.
At least Becks has Pete Vagenas (for his sake, I hope that's pronounced "vague-ness") sitting next to him on the bench showing him how to cross his legs. Pete could probably teach Posh a few things.
Awesome.
Bloke is an Australian slang term. Beckham is English.
