David Beckham Will Appear Glimmering and Mostly Naked On a Street Corner Near You

All, Soccer, Video Ty Duffy August 17th. 2012, 12:33pm

This is basically the most “David Beckham” thing ever. Clothing manufacturer H&M is placing 10-foot-tall silver statues of Becks in various cities as part of an ad campaign for his new underwear line, because, really, gold would have been too gaudy. The former England captain has already been accused of artificial enhancement. H&M is targeting the discerning man who wants to look fabulous for an instant, before chafing at the cheap, itchy fabric and having it come apart at the seams in the washing machine.

Hmm. I don’t seem to have that problem with Old Navy.

I’m threadjacking in the name of Yardwork.
It was amusing watching all the high-priced and injured Red Sox staff hug Buchholz in the dugout after he was done. Just one disappointment after another lining up to maybe get some good luck rubbing off.

I feel vindicated in my stances of “Crawford will be okay, he’ll hit .290, and just be overpaid… won’t hit .250 forever, and he at least takes the game to heart” and “Buchholz broke his fucking back, give him a couple months, he’s got the best stuff on the staff”

Hopefully, that meme has been retired.
This 1/3 1/3 1/3 thing is collapsing upon itself today.

not a great year at the plate for Mr Hardy, though i don’t think he’ll ever have a repeat of last year. his defense has been solid, as usual.

This also applies to Ocho Seis’d marriage as well as his relationship with every team he’s played for.
