Sharon Stone was a busy women Sunday Night. After the Academy Awards, the star hosted an Elton John AIDS benefit auction. The event was a resounding success, raising millions of dollars for AIDS research. The least expensive item of the night, a private soccer lesson with $250 million man David Beckham, sold for a cool $70,000. One guest remarked:
"Guess it shows how much Americans care about soccer." (Source)
Typical Hollywood elite, bitching about someone spending "only" $70,000 on a soccer lesson with David Beckham. You want a free soccer lesson? How 'bout: don't play soccer. Seriously this isn't Europe. Here in America, we play real sports like fantasy football and NASCAR. That teenage son of yours you forced into AYSO soccer at age nine? He's gay. Seriously, ask him tonight at dinner. This has nothing whatsoever to do with this story, I just thought you should know.
More of David playing with his balls after the jump...

Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson just ran a 4.3 40 at the NFL combine this week. He has a 45 inch vertical leap (he maxed out the machine).
Oh yeah, he's 6'5" and 238 pounds.
Let me see ANY soccer player match his athleticism

I may agree that football (aka to only the US soccer) is a not the best sport but American football? Are you real? You people wear protection for goodness sake. If they were men you wouldnt need any.
