First things first-Tim Tebow rules. Go Florida for shocking the world and finally getting some respect. I know there are arguments of whether they belonged there, but they way they handled OSU says something. And Tim Tebow is goign to lead them next year again!
Secondly, David Beckham has signed a deal with LA Galaxy today. He is leavign competitive Europe/Real Madrid for MLS. why would he ever do this? besides the lucrative contract, he seems to have lost interest in his sport and the reason why he did it in the first place. How many times is a player willing to sell out for money? A-rod, carlos lee, T.O., barry bonds, etc. and now david beckham? I'm tired of these players saying all they want is a championship but wont settle for a cut in the paycheck. Is sports done for love or money?
Looking ahead:
For those looking for something to look forward to, Wisconsin visits NU this weekend. If you wanna see pure dominance, go watch it. For something different, the australian open starts next monday. Depending on the time change, tennis can be quite exhilerating to watch. Roger Federer plays the game as it should be played.

Hi David,
I heard the Beckham news as well and was surprised. The radio program suggested it was because he was getting on (age-wise) and would find it easier to still be the star in the context of the LA team rather than Real Madrid.
I'm kind of interested in what makes a star a star, apart from statistical things like winning a lot, kicking lots of goals etc. Roger Federer's a good example, I'm told that he's not just extremely successful, but has a hitherto-unseen grace and presence on the court. It's often these more abstract questions of "style" that makes a star (or can make a continent a star, like South American soccer...). What's Tebow's "style"? What's Beckham's "style"?
