Thursday Training & More On The Champions League Draw/UEFA Awards

Before the reps of RM jetted off to Monaco for the Champions League draw, there was work to be done.

Last Training Before Man City & Famous Visitors

The team had their final training session before facing Man City tomorrow night in LA.

New Year & Holiday Fun

Hope everyone had a lovely New Year’s Eve and have been enjoying the day today. As promised, a bumper crop of what various ‘ballers have been doing on their holidays. There have been engagements, baby announcements, singing in the mirror while dressed in a towel (Cristiano), blue gradient shoes (Sergio), celebrating on a camel (Mateo & Lukita) and a rather ungracious joke about a rival (Toni Kroos, being a bit rude, IMHO).  Let’s dig in! (It’s long so be prepared!)

Well, DUH.

Becks is People’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2015. Pfffft! We’ve known that forever! (Predictably, his kids thought it was hilarious.)

Becks For Sprint

David Beckham is starring in Sprint’s new All-In commercial. Who among us wouldn’t follow Becks around like a puppy given half a chance?

Happy Birthday Becks!

Old Golden Balls turns 40 today and it looks really well on him doesn’t it? Happy Birthday Becks! Long may you smolder.

Spend Some Time (Un)dressing David Beckham

How many of us have wanted to get in David Beckham’s pants? Or is the better question, who HASN’T wanted to get in David Beckham’s pants? Well, now is your chance! In a way…

David Beckham Is An Embarrassing Dad Part II

We all know that Becks is an embarrassing dad according to his kids. Well, he’s proven it again. Poor Brooklyn, he was all excited to get 1 million Instagram followers, that is, until his father popped in to remind Brooklyn that he’s got 52 million Facebook followers (he’s really got 50 million but…) I mean, what can you really say after that? Brooklyn added a poignant hashtag #ismydadcoolerthanme   Awwww!

DB & JC Share Their Pants!

Becks was one of the guests on last night’s episode of the Late Late Show with James Corden and they shared this gem.

I’ll Drink To That (And One For Mahler)*

*Sorry not sorry, my Sondheim love is showing. How could I resist quoting Company? I obviously couldn’t especially since Elaine Strich was left out of the Oscars In Memoriam montage last night. WTF? Here’s Stritchie growling her way through Ladies who Lunch.

Our fine gentlemen have the day off so I thought I’d catch up with the luscious Mr. Beckham who is now the face of Haig Club Single Grain Scotch Whiskey. Me? I can’t stand that particular tipple. Shigs thinks this is a massive failing on my part. She’s probably right BUT considering how many things I do drink, it’s  probably best if I have a few that I don’t.
