David Beckham Almost in Halftime Fight With Fans

Beckham gets called out for his questionable commitment to the L.A. Galaxy by fans, so Beckham calls them out. Someone accepted.

Actually Beckham was trying to make amends to the angry fans. You can see him holding his hand out to shake the guys hand. I'm glad there was security there though, the guy didn't look like he wanted to shake hands.

I don't buy that Yogi. In the NYT article on the incident (link), Beckham claims "I just tried to go over and shake one of their hands and tell them to calm down" but then "When a reporter told Beckham he was sitting with the fans and that it had not sounded as if Beckham was so conciliatory, Beckham said, “Then you don’t need to ask me that question.”"

It sounds like Beckham was caught in a lie by that reporter.

I can sympathize with these fans. They're feeling rejected. Beckham clearly wants to be somewhere else.

That could be true, but I wouldn't trust the New York Times on that. The truth is about the Riot Squad is they're an insane bunch of thugs. I don't like Beckhams shenanigans and I don't believe he wants to be with AC Milan during their pre-season where he probably wouldn't see much action anyway.

You could be right that he was mad and wanted to voice his opinion too, however going over there and getting ahold of himself and holding out his hand to shake one of theres is better than just flipping them off and threatening them.

People who act like idiots should be called out as idiots, the Riot Squad being the idiots. Beckham switching teams back and forth and not being as committed as he says should be called out for hypocrisy. I think Beckham is here to play soccer, and he is, setting up two goals for the Galaxy so far, and them generally playing better with him on the field. I don't care if he doesn't want to be here as long as he runs his hardest and makes plays, which is what he's been doing.
