Will they let him come to MLS at the start of their season?

setanta is 16 dollars a month extra from directv [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. to get goltv and fsc you have to have the 99 dollar package. so i pay 116 a month to get the soccer channels pretty much. NOW THATS DEDICATION.

You don't need the $99 to get Gol and FSC. All you need is the $12 sports package in addition to the base package (which I think is $45).

The $99 package gets you HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, etc. If you don't watch those, you should probably change your package.

Real Madrid's coach, Capello, has now announced that Beckham is done with Real Madrid. He won't play again, and he will only see limited practice time.

I've read so much bad mouthing about Beckham from English print, but he is definitely looking like the class of soccer, while everyone else is showing their true colors.

Yeah, can Real Madrid just buy out the rest of his contract if they're so bent on getting rid of him?

What they could do is lend him.

It's common for players to go on loan to other clubs in soccer. Most of the time it's young guys who are quite talented but not good enough to make the first team at big clubs. They get lent to smaller clubs who can start the guy. In these cases the teams make some sort of deal where the team getting him pays a portion of his salary. I could see that happening here.
