Donovan & Beckham: So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…Or Not
Following up on an early Soccerati post, looks like that little book on David Beckham (the aptly titled The Beckham Experiment) might cause some serious relationship issues for the LA Galaxy.
In the book, LA team-mate Landon Donovan calls out Becks’ commitment to the Galaxy and the British international’s leadership skills.
“Maybe he’s not a leader, maybe he’s not a captain,” LD says. “Fair enough. But at minimum, you should bust your ass everyday. That hasn’t happened. And I don’t think that’s too much to expect. Especially when he’s brought all this on us.”
Oh no he didn’t!
The damage control on Donovan v. Beckham should be fun to watch. Stay tuned for more.

US routs Grenada 4-0 in Gold Cup
The United States returned home from the FIFA Confederations Cup and used one of its youngest lineups in recent memory to rout Grenada 4-0 Saturday night as it opened the title defense in the regional championship of North and Central America and the Caribbean, the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Freddy Adu scored the opening goal in the seventh minute and Stuart Holden doubled the lead in the 31st, both fed by Robbie Rogers.
Rogers scored in the 60th minute and Charlie Davies, one of the few players kept on from the Confederations Cup, got the final goal in the 68th.
The 12th-ranked Americans, seeking their third straight Gold Cup title, outshot No. 88 Grenada 25-3.
