A poster going by the name of “YellowFeather” over at The Motley Fool has a theory why David Beckham thought it was okay to have the last “word” in his on-the-pitch feud with Thatcher [that’s the footballer, not the former UK Prime Minister or any of her relatives] during the England vs Wales World Cup qualifying match yesterday:
“After hearing the BBC commentators getting so worked up about Beckham’s yellow card I can’t help thinking that he is a bit more intelligent than he is given credit for.
“As Motty himself pointed out earlier in the match – two yellow cards in WC qualifying games means a one match ban and Beckham already has one booking to his name. So Beckham gets fouled by the clod Thatcher, feels his rib go and knows that he won’t be fit by Wednesday. He realises that if he gets a booking before he gets subbed off then he will be suspended from the game against Azerbaijan, which he would miss through injury anyway. His slate is then wiped clean as regards his bookings for England.
“Beckham jumps on Thatcher.”
[“Motty” is the nickname given to famous BBC football commentator John Motson.]

Rumour has it David Beckham could be signing a £1.1 million deal with Calvin Klein. Apparently Beckham, AKA Golden Balls, spends a grand each month on Calvin Klein Boxers or to be more precise Calvin Klein Pro Stretch Boxers and allegedly he wants an opportunity to show off his tackle – wink, wink!
Surely this is a genuine match made in heaven (unlike his marriage – only joking!); Golden Balls is indisputably the ultimate metrosexual and gay icon and Calvin Klein produce arguably the ultimate boxer shorts so on the face of it this is a sure-fire winning combination (unlike his team – not joking!). Perhaps the question on most peoples’ minds, even if they don’t want to admit it, is does David Beckham need any props to pose in a pair of CK boxers? Calvin Klein boxer short models have a certain reputation and Golden Balls will not want to let down the side, so perhaps a strategically positioned pair of rolled up Real Madrid socks will give Becks the necessary swerve.
Whatever the result, Calvin Klein will surely not pass up this once in a blue moon opportunity to expose their CK boxers to Golden Balls’ global fan base…. and there are undoubtedly a few guys in San Francisco, Brighton and Barcelona hoping Becks will expose his Golden Balls to Calvin Klein’s global fan base too!
is david gay? i hope not. this passage confuses me. he’s to hott to be gay. i wouldn’t mind seeing him in the ck boxers though. golden balls is NOT a cool name. it should be changed. something more sexy. sexy is made for david beckham. golden balls sounds extremely gay. that’s not good.
