I'd love to see Torre in KC. Too bad they already have someone else.

What do you think of that grass fairy David Beckham????

 

What about him?? I don't pay attention to soccer.

 

I think he got some kind of ridiculous 5 year $250mil contract from L.A. I dont pay attention to soccer either but this was a big F'n deal at the beginning of the summer

 

Thats absurd too. And soccer is less popular than baseball./ Guess they were trying to pay him to bring soccer alive. No one person shouold be paid that much mone. He has a smokin hott wife tho

 

It may be less popular here, but not in the rest of the world. But then again we've (USA) always done things our own way.

Personally, I think baseball is akin to listening to paint dry.

Best deal in baseball!!???

 

That's too bad, Torre's a good skipper. I'm glad he told Steinbrenner to stuff it. I hope he can find someone who'll fill Joe's shoes, it won't be an easy task.

 

Yea but where it's popular they don't pay their athletes rediculous amounts of cash.

 

They do where the market is big. Europe. They could care less for baseball and football over there. Soccer is king. They pay the big names just like we do in our sports.

 

Europe pays big for their athletes, Look what Micheal Schumacher (sp?) F1 driver for Ferrari makes.
Valantino Rossi (FIM 500 GP Motorcycle)

Make our athletes look underpaid. And with the Euro being worth almost $1.50 of U.S. currency even more so.
