The debut of Beckham just ended. He played the last 13+ minutes, had only a few touches, and got tackled in extra time which put a scare into the sold out Home Depot Center. Lucky for the LA Galaxy that Chelsea isn't in the same league, cause they aren't even close to being in the same league.
Chelsea plays at a completely different gear.
The final was 1-0, but it wasn't close, the game was played almost entirely in the Galaxy's end, but for solid goaltending by Cannon and excellent defense by Xavier, Chelsea would have scored 3 or 4 times.
Against another MLS team, they might be good, haven't been paying enough attention to know.
The ESPN coverage covered the 'stars' in the stands more than the game at times, Victoria Beckham was there of course, and she drug Eva Longoria and Katie Holmes (clutching Suri) with her. Kevin Garnett was here, I'll take that as a sign that a deal is getting done to send KG to LA. The Governator took some time off from Governating and brought the wife and kids. Drew Carey was there to actually watch the game, which seemed out of place.

I turned over for a couple minutes, thinking I'd check out the coverage. This was a big deal--ESP had soccer on the main channel.
Unfortunately, ESPN was also using that trollish little Irishman that used for the Word Cup. At least he's small enough you could pick him up and use him to beat Tim McCarver to death.
