10.28.08 DAVID BECKHAM IS YESTERDAY’S NEWS
News broke last week that the LA Galaxy would be shipping David Beckham off to AC Milan — or somewhere in Italy, I wasn’t really paying attention — prompting many critics to do what they like best, which is bitch about the existence of soccer in America. But for better or for worse (and for the ladies, I’d say “better”), we’ve lost one underwear-modeling washed-up European soccer star only to gain another.
Fredrik Ljungberg, the 31-year-old Swede who you’re more likely to recognize in Calvin Kleins than a soccer jersey, has signed with the Seattle Sounders, the new MLS team that will begin its first season whenever it is that the MLS season begins. All you ladies and closeted homosexuals — that’s most of the readership, I believe — will likely enjoy perusing Freddie’s gallery of shredded ab-ness. I looked at all the pictures carefully, but it was only to… uh… make sure he wasn’t better looking than me! Yeah, that’s why.

Ha! OKC Thunder, take that!
Brady Quinn suddenly has the urge for Swedish meatballs.
Same guy who got a dildo shoved up his ass by his gf?
I can’t tell if this makes the Seattle sports scene more or less depressing. Maybe he and Matt Hasselbeck can do a “Bald Is Beautiful” ad campaign together or something? You know… for the ladies.
I get the feeling that we haven’t heard from Smello yet because she’s too busy trying to shove that gallery inside her. Aren’t we all though?
Which one is Freddie and which is Beckham in that banner pic?
You’d be surprised how hard it is to mount a computer screen.
Smello may disagree with me on this, but Freddie > Becks. He’ll be a more than suitable substitute for Beckham in the role of expat-over-the-hill-footballer.
“I like it here, this feels great,” Ljungberg told Expressen. “It’s perfect, I love it here and this feels great.”
He had the same expression on his face when you open up your xmas presents and you get socks
Great. The IT guy came in and said I downloaded “gay”.
