Accept it. Just accept it. Unless you can change the mind of the higher ups wirtting the checks, there's nothing you can do. Nothing. Cancel your season tix, stop going to games, strongly worded letter to the front office, all of that will be insignificant to Uncle Phil and everyone else at AEG. David Beckham is part of your Los Angeles Galaxy. And he will be a part of the team forever. When sports historians go back and look at the roster for the G's, his name will be there. Nothing you can do to erase it.

Well Slug! You're going to continue to accept mediocrity and make excuses for lack of commitment, when commitment is what it takes to win championships. Jerry Buss knows how to run a business that wins championships. You act like they are mutually exclusive. Job one is to win championships. As long as that happens you have a business to worry about. If there is no hope for a championship then you won't have a business. Look at Chivas USA.Well Cat, you are not gonna sleep well for a long time. AEG does not care about you or the Galaxy. They care about profits and their investors. And in the end, thats what really matters. Its a fucking business not a public owned team. Do you guys not fucking get it after all these years? JFC!!!
Please don't patronize those of us who understand what it takes to win a championship. Business has much less to do with it than commitment, passion and cohesiveness top to bottom. So talk all you want about how we need to accept this, and accept that because it is a "reality". Sounds like the Clipper front office to me. As thankful as I am for MLS and how far it has come. As excited as I am to see young talented players with the kinds of opportunities I never had, US Soccer will not reach the next level as long as individuals are more important than the team and money trumps soccer. The NBA is the best league in the world, but the US isn't the best basketball team. Same problem.

You can accept it. I plan to go on being pissed off. Maybe my pissed-off thought waves will cause Uncle Phil and Timmay Lieweke to be struck with an epiphany and sell the team to someone who gives a shit while they go off and become monks in a Nepalese monastery. That seems to me more likely than my simply accepting this shit.Accept it. Just accept it. Unless you can change the mind of the higher ups wirtting the checks, there's nothing you can do. Nothing.

Spot On!
I also hope The G's win some Trophies, not some meaningless Supporter's Shield.
As Andy said to Red, Hope is a good thing.

I do love him! Very much! That's why I expect more of him. That's why I can't accept him being less than he fully could be. How could you possibly settle for less? For his sake?It's easy to make excuses.

The url says .co.uk at the end, so taken with a case of Morten's salt. Grumpy is going to put in long hours, assist and play second fiddle to Bruce, while playing in Europe at the same time?Hold on folks
