"Every game, every team, should have grass – without a doubt," Beckham said. "You can't ask any soccer athlete to perform at a high level on FieldTurf."
-David Beckham

I'm going to completely ignore the fact that he is commenting on the argument many MLS players have about fake turf and just take notice that he now refers to futbol as soccer. You know I'm honestly against imperialism and I'm against American Imperialism as much as I am against British but man is it ever prevalent now. We have taken a word this man must have said on a daily basis and totally turned around its meaning to him. Football is now the sport where the star player has dog fights in his backyard. Cricket has become nothing more than that annoying sound he keeps hearing before he goes to sleep. And don't get me started on how "Dumb and Dumber" ruined his interpretation of "tea and scrumpets." What can I say about our bastardization of anything cultural? Well I really don’t have to say anything about it, just walk into any Olive Garden of your choice and you can witness years of Italian Culinary art being punched in the crotch repeatedly then being paraded on a catwalk.

But back to Beckham. Seriously, this guy has gone soft on his upbringing, I'm beginning to speculate that he doesn’t drink as much tea as he used to. And that’s just a sad thought. Oh well, lets take an inventory of all the things America has now claimed:
Beckham’s Vocabulary,
British Music,
Lacoste,
Homosexuals,
Incompetent Leadership

At this rate there will be no stopping us, next thing ya know we'll all be praising Allah, or screaming Harry Krishna, or doing something else that America deems fit to Bastardize. So with all of that said, Beckhams got to go.

p.s. If your wondering how that applies to sports, then you need to get less free time. Hippy.
