True Stars Shine In Los Angeles
Thank God they finally got that out of the way. For weeks we've been inundated with coverage of David Beckham's American debut.

Donovan, Beckham Each Politely Request A Mulligan
It's buyer's remorse day here at Who's Sorry Now, as Billy Donovan and David Beckham each ask the musical question: What exactly is the cooling off period for switching high-profile sports jobs?

Giving Beckham The Shirt Off Your Back (And Almost The Pants Too!)
Over the weekend, MJD told you about the fan who was arrested for shining a laser pointer into the eyes of Braves players.
