Beckham is not overrated, in his prime he was one of the best freekickers and passers around and hes still very good. Henry may end up in MLS sooner than people think too, the rumor is that he will be in Seattle next year. People always give famous players a hard time when they get older, just look at what happenned to Ronaldo, he is still an extremely good player and great scorer when given the chance but just because he isnt as good as he used to be everyone labels him as crap.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Eh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 2nd 2008 10:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on David Beckham gifted with gilded iPod touch for 100th England cap]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/02/david-beckham-gifted-with-gilded-ipod-touch-for-100th-england-ca/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/02/david-beckham-gifted-with-gilded-ipod-touch-for-100th-england-ca/</guid><description><![CDATA[No, Beckham was never as good as he was made out to be - his worth was over-exagerated because of how marketable he is/was.

The guy's genuinely a nice guy, loves his kids and his wife, and isn't getting busted for carrying a gun or beating up a reporter or any of these other things most American sports "heroes" are getting nailed for.  He's a great role model, and I'm glad he's over here playing for MLS.
