Becks, the new Madden of football

There's no disputing the fact that David Beckham is a good lookin' lad, but isn't it really that voice of his that'll make you stop in your tracks and say, "Really .. that's the way he talks?"
His knees and ankles may not render him a member of any value to these Galaxy footballers, but it's his helium-like vocal chords that the TV is most interested in these days in helping change the way you'll look at a game for the rest of your lives.
In a very special edition of MLS Primetime on Thursday, during the match at the Home Depot Center between the Galaxy and Chivas USA -- who's the home team? who cares -- Beckham will begin his transformation into an in-your-face TV broadcaster by joining the ESPN2 telecast on the 8 p.m. game.
It's not as if there's a lot of dead time to fill.
Play-by-play man Glenn Davis (it must not be a true kickball affair if Dave O'Brien isn't present), analysts Eric Wynalda and Tommy Smyth and sideline guy Allen Hopkins have agreed to cut back on their verbiage to allow the Galaxy captain, who continues to rehab a knee injury, to make his first televised soccer booth appearance.
ESPN folk says the Englander has agreed to "discuss a wide range of topics as well as provide some insight on the in-game action." You'd think the later would be more important, consider it's a league contest. Naw, give us some real dirt this time, eh Becky?
For those who don't have access to a TV and only a computer, ESPN360.com will also have the telecast, perhaps reviving their "BeckCam" from hiding. Just to let all of us all know that he may be out of sight and out of mind these days, but he's never out of voice range.
