    because its not compettivie enough for him. Becham is one of the few players with a total and utter love for the game, sure money comes into it but he would be the first to say that the game comes before the money. He would misss the european leugues too much

    Exactly. He can get as much money being in RM as in the USA (if not more), plus what he really wants is winning the Champions League, and with the current state of things he will only do that in Real. JazX, Nike will pay him wherever he is, same as Ronaldo and Roberto Carlos, which have contracts with Nike even when Real Madrid as a team has a contract with Adidas ;) And besides that, 90% or more of Beckham's incomes are from the far east market (China, Japan...). If you have in mind that RM is the fav team in those countries... Well, 2+2=4. sexypixel, Gazza is actually playing the equivalent in China to the english 1st Division.
