Both were better, but neither was a bigger star...


Aug 29, 2007, 8:39 PM

in terms of marketability.

Pele *WAS* soccer at his prime.

Beckham is admired, but he is nowhere near the player Pele was.

But if you needed someone to take a free kick


Aug 29, 2007, 8:58 PM

Absolutely

Though in his prime Ronaldo would be a very close second.

That said, for total game I'd take Pele

speaking of soccer, has berson fixed the coke problem in y'alls soccer program?

If Ronaldo had been English instead of Brazilian...

He was still the best striker of all time before he aged and got fat.

Re: Bigger Than Beckham? But Someone's Not Too Smart...

SO...Miss South Carolina shows that she doesn't know world geography and our coach shows that he doesn't know world sports....great.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

My question is, who cares?***


Aug 29, 2007, 11:14 PM



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

no, our coach doesnt give a rat's #### about soccer, much


Aug 30, 2007, 9:11 AM [ in reply to Re: Bigger Than Beckham? But Someone's Not Too Smart... ]

like the rest of the country

He asked "in the history of soccer". There is a lot of people that come to my mind before Beckham. Pele, Maradono, Beckenbuaer, Best, Maldini, Cantona(I'm partial to Man United), Zidane, etc. And don't even get started on who is the best ever. Beckham is good, but not quite up there with the gods of the beautiful game.

And it's not wrong to talk about soccer, because the real football(soccer)leagues started their seasons 2 weeks ago. When I say real, I mean leagues other than MLS.

Ya'll do know that soccer is a communist sport?

Famous or better Skill


Aug 30, 2007, 2:44 PM

There is a difference. Beckham is definitely more famous....movie, millions upon millions.

heck Beckham probably isn't one of the best 10 of all time if skills were being assessed.
