Los Angeles Times The English and Galaxy soccer star who won titles in four countries and enjoyed rubbing elbows in L.A. isn't likely to see his stardom fade, but he may not get his wish about how he will be remembered.We haven't seen the last of David Beckham. Oh, sure, we may not see him on a soccer field now that he's announced he will retire after Paris Saint-Germain's final game on May 26. But we will see him in many other places — billboards, magazines, TV — for years to come.
Los Angeles Galaxy May 18, 2013Salt Lake Tribune Kragthorpe: David Beckham forever connected to Real Salt Lake by Kurt Kragthorpe Tribune Columnist Published May 18, 2013 02:11PM MDT Not far from the spot where he once stuck a gold shovel into the dirt, David Beckham joined Los Angeles Galaxy teammates Landon Donovan and Todd Dunivant in a big hug in the middle of Rio Tinto Stadium to celebrate a comeback victory over Real Salt Lake. That scene from last June stands as Beckham’s farewell appearance in the Salt Lake Valley now that he’s retiring from professional soccer after playing this season in France.

Sounder At Heart David Beckham announced his retirement Thursday. Here is a roundup of comments about the news, and a look at his "five biggest moments" in U.S. soccer (Pro Soccer Talk).

Without Beckham's s...

Sounder At Heart When David Beckham retires from playing the game of soccer it is a global story. There are a handful of players that get comments from Sepp Blatter and the MLS (EPL, La Liga, Ligue 1) star is one of those. But it has meanings off the pitch for the American game. Beckham gets to own a team in MLS. It can not be in New York and if in LA has to be with the Galaxy (at least that was true the last time someone spoke on this). It seems quite likely that Miami is Beckham's eventual MLS destination. And that would make three cities that are very close to being ready. NY2 is about as certain as...

Los Angeles Galaxy May 16, 2013Los Angeles Times Two-time defending champions are in fifth place and attendance is down somewhat, but that is blamed more on Landon Donovan's late arrival and Sunday home games than the absence of the English star. David Beckham's six years with the Galaxy bolstered the fortunes of both the Galaxy and Major League Soccer. But now that the superstar is gone, has it made any difference?
Los Angeles Galaxy May 14, 2013Salt Lake Tribune Kragthorpe: Galaxy’s visit another sign of trouble for RSL by Kurt Kragthorpe Tribune Columnist Published Apr 27, 2013 10:10PM MDT Sandy The last time Real Salt Lake crumbled against the Los Angeles Galaxy at Rio Tinto Stadium, the home team at least could blame Landon Donovan and David Beckham. No such celebrity sightings, excuses or explanations were available Saturday night, when RSL was overwhelmed in the early stages of the game and never recovered in a 2-0 defeat.
