David Beckham, Soccer and My Son...
I must admit I'm not much of a soccer fan. As I tell my friends, watching men with long locks and hair bands fruitlessly run up and down a field is not my idea of fun, regardless of how pretty their hair may look blowing in the wind!
In fact, outside of jumping on the World Cup bandwagon every four years (usually only during the championship game, if there's a party!), you're not going to catch me watching a soccer game.
Therefore, all the talk and hoopla about David Beckham bringing MLS soccer to Miami was met by me with as much enthusiasm as a janitor called to unclog New Jersey Governor Chris Christy's office toilet. Yay! How much fun is that?
However, it did bring back fond memories of my son's prowess on the soccer field several years ago, or should I say, lack thereof.
