Thursday Kicks: Becks on Ellen & more

Um, you do know what I mean, right?

Anyway, here’s David Beckham’s bit (ahem) on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Wednesday:

Back to your regularly scheduled soccer programming:

*The Tacoma News Tribune takes us back to the month that changed the Seattle Sounders’ season ahead of Sunday’s playoff game against the Galaxy.

*Don’t forget, the MLS playoffs begin tonight when Columbus visits Colorado at 6 o’clock on ESPN2. The Galaxy, should the club progress to MLS Cup in Toronto, wouldn’t meet either team until then, should either of them progress that far, too.

*The USWNT opens CONCACAF World Cup qualifying at 5:30 p.m. today. There’s no TV coverage of the game. Read the game basics here.

A preview of the U.S. group is here:

Watch the game here.

*How big was that big Central Coast college crowd I blogged about Wednesday? Big. Told ya.

Cal Poly won 2-1.

*Cal State Northridge fell 2-1 at home to UCLA Wednesday, in a game that saw freshman forward Victor Chavez score two goals in the first 14 minutes of the game to lead the 15th-ranked Bruins to the victory. UCLA improved to 11-4-1, while Northridge dropped to 2-12-2.
