Football / Re: Donovan rips Beckham
« on: July 02, 2009, 02:53:30 PM »
From what i've read, I feel Landon talking the truth..but to air it in public just makes him an even worse teammate and leader than the guy who he is criticizing. He has potentially created an even bigger rift in the dressing room. And the timing of it is crazy. It would be one thing if he made those comments if it was clear Becks was never coming back, or if things were going to work out for Landon in the Bundesliga and he wouldn't have to deal with the Englishman (it woulda still be unprofessional, but i coulda better see why he fire de shot)...But it looks like he knows full well he has to play with Becks and he sees it as something he has to confront him about.
The auther Grant Wahl writes for Sports Illustrated and this book smells of either vendetta (like he personally trying to get back at Beckham for something)..or a push for stardom by writing something sensational. I surprised a current teammate would fall for that bait. The author must know by publishing a book with this kind of slant he was going to do a lot of damage.
For the mother of all conspiracy theories though...the timing of this book too suspicious. How is the 'Beckham Experiment' failed if it not over. How come the book coming out exactly on Becks return. What if this is just MLS drumming up some drama for the league and Landon and Beckham in on it. Nahhhhhh...never was a big conspiracy theorist..I feel Landon eat dat bait and I for one will be checking out Galaxy games just to see if is pure hate and they acting normal
