Courtesy of Dantat comes this excellent footage of Becks first training day. Thankfully Denzel Washington and his dust-laden weed was no where to be found. The dollar signs popping off of every kick is more spot on than an Escalade full of Dalmatians.
You heard that his ankle is still wonky, right? With so much green (not to mention 19 cameras) tied up in this match, I'd be willing to bet that if he can walk without aid of cane he'll play. Is that the best thing for all involved? Is it worth it to shine so much light and on an injured player for a friendly?
Sponsors will sure as shit say "Yes". But there are two dangers in taking the risk with his diminished playing capacity. One is that he gets really injured and the whole season goes up in smoke; the second is that due to his limited physical abilities MLS newbies will see his debut as the sporting equivalent of Geraldo Rivera's Al Capone's Vault special....there's nothing there
