So I haven't been on here forever but I feel like I have to share this story. Yesterday I met David Beckham, and yes I'm telling the truth. Now, I know the population of bluemoon users who actually acknowledge baseball as a sport is probably secluded to just me and a few others, but what the hell, hear me out. Last night, I went to the Phillies-Reds playoff game 1 (been a phils fan my entire life), and Roy Halladay throws a no hitter. Now if that wasn't memorable enough, I got the tickets through a friend who's mother is pretty high up in the media section of the organization. So after a few hours of tailgating, my friends and I find our seats about 15 minutes before the first pitch, and the mother comes up and says "would you guys like to come see David Beckham". Now I'm thinking, this has to be a joke, what the hell would David Beckham be doing in Philadelphia, let alone a baseball game. But sure enough we go down with her and there he is, with is gay little hair cut and arrogant smile and all. So we go up and say hello, not much else, but as I go to shake his hand he reaches out and it must have been the beer catching up to me because I immediately pull back and say "I'm a city fan you know". Well he thought this was funny and laughed, shook my hand, and had a few quick words. He's honestly a decent guy when all is said and done. That's about it, so maybe not much of a story, but I felt I had to share it on here.

Did Beckham look confused ? I mean if someone asked him if he fancied going to see the Philli's, I imagine it wasn't quite what he was expecting.

Top player in his day. You don't play for united, Madrid and AC if you're a mug.
Also, if that rake of a human was my wife, i'd cheat on her too. The most vile example of the female form in my book.

Big problem with this guy - Anyone who cheats on their wife is scum

A younger me wouldn't agree, however the more mature me does, to an extent. Give a guy unlimited money, fame and all that goes with it, and it would be difficult for most men to say no to the constant stream of gorgeous women throwing themselves at you. I'd like to think I would be strong enough to say no, but I can't say for 100% certainty that I would.california blue said:Big problem with this guy - Anyone who cheats on their wife is scum

Very fair post, I don't mind Beckham he is no hero of mine but he does more good than bad.Pigeonho said:A younger me wouldn't agree, however the more mature me does, to an extent.
