David Beckham, the most recognized soccer player on the planet - also a fashion icon, tabloid fixture and all over marketing giant - announced a deal on Thursday to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer. For a 5-year contract reportedly worth $250 million, Beckham is expected to do for American soccer what the Beatles once did for pop music or Survivor did for Reality TV. I believe the US is ready to finally adopt the world’s biggest sport and Beckman might very well be the catalyst, so this is a very interesting development.
