GALAXY's persistence gets them that all-important win
San Diego MLS Project — After so many recent trials with missing star players on international duty, trades, and a startling front-office shake-up, it looks like the LA Galaxy may have things figured out for the remainder of the waning 2008 season... They looked good --- really good --- Saturday night at their full-strength with the powerful tandem of Landon Donovan and David Beckham doing what they do best. The entire team was sharp against a very talented and well-prepared D.C. United, who only last month, after all, had won the U.S. Open Cup. Meanwhile, the Galaxy had been floundering, and at the bottom of the Western Conference table as of last ...

CUTE OF THE DAY: BECKS ON SESAME STREET
This Is Extra Time — ... Via Ballhype: I'm sorry, I would have commentary, but I'm too busy flailing at the cuteness of it all.

David Beckham on Sesame Street
You'll Never Blog Alone — Via Ballhype: I'm sorry, I would have commentary, but I'm too busy flailing at the cuteness of it all. I do have to say, I like this version of Beckham a lot better than the one who bitches at refs and gets calls he doesn't deserve. Not that I'm bitter about the DC/Galaxy game last night. I've been watching a lot of MLS lately, both because Liverpool have been so utterly uninspiring and because I actually enjoy it. It helps that the team I sort of fell into following, Columbus, are leading the league and have clinched the playoffs. Also, I like ...

David Beckham on Sesame Street
The Offside — David Beckham on Sesame Street By: Daryl | September 23rd, 2008 David Beckham might be a superstar, and he might have inadvertently started the whole WAG thing (sort of). But he’s not your typical superstar, because he’s prepared to do things that other high profile footballers probably wouldn’t do. Like go on Sesame Street. Can you imagine Cristiano Ronaldo on Sesame Street? Me neither. Only sad thing is that when he defines persistent for the kids: “persistent means not to give up, even when things don’t go the way you want them to”, it sounds like he’s talking about his LA Galaxy career.

The Morning Tailgate
JoeSportsFan.com — The most lopsided game in the NFL this past weekend offered up quite a study in the dynamics of Tailgating.  In East Rutherford, NJ, the resurgent Jets pounded the Rams by a college-esque score of 47-3. If this game was a true tailgate, the roles would be pretty well-defined… Thomas Jones was the guy who brings everything.  You need ketchup for you dog?  He brought it.  Got some fancy beer that needs a bottle opener?  He happens to have one of those too.  He even brought a freaking satellite dish so that everyone can watch the pregame.  Jones went for 149 yards rushing, 3 touchdowns and completely set the tone for the game ...
