David Beckham will be joining the ESPN commentary team at half-time during the broadcast of tomorrow's Super Clasico between the LA Galaxy and Chivas USA.

Thanks to Scilla for the heads up!
David Beckham's Soccer USA 8
David Beckham provides an update on his injury on the UK edition of David Beckham's Soccer USA (it starts 50 seconds in) here. Thanks to Kinsellagem -You can also watch part 1 and part 2. Episode 8 of the US edition of David Beckham's soccer USA is online here.
Here's wishing him all the best with his recovery. I hope England's 3-0 win over Russia which gives their Euro 2008 chances a big shot in the arm will have cheered him up. He'll be really happy for the boys!
Congrats to Becks who was named amongst People magazine's best dressed of 2007. Of course!
For any fans in Korea, Motorola are running a contest called 'Become Beckham' featuring Becks online here. At least I think that is what the site is about, it features some slick flash but no new photos.

3:33 AM

4:37 AM
Thanks for the clip...wow his treatment and gymn work is full on! Looking forward to hm being in the booth ESPN2 rite?
5:07 AM
yep ESPN2 Pru :)

I doubt Beckham will get a word in cos Eric Wynalda never shuts up. One good thing about Beckham being a guest is Wynalda probably won't spend the entire game bagging the Galaxy like he did during the last game ESPN2 broadcast.
6:46 AM
are they gonna have Beckham-cam in the booth LOL actually this is an upside to ESPN being such d**ks we will get to hear Becks talking a bit about the game and I'm interested to hear his perspective
7:00 AM
thanks for all the updates. thanks kinsellagem for the, vid. sadly, i had to watch it twice, because i was just staring and didn't hear what he said.
it sounds like serious rehab. so, hopefully he'll be back playing soon.
8:03 AM
Go Galaxy! Hope they win it won't be much fun for David if hes in the booth and his team is losing
Thanks for the clips and photos =)

Sorry Anna the match was at 4am my time and in the end I was just too tired but thanks for posting the link. He didn't commentate in the end it seems? Thanks for the interview :-)
1:05 AM
It's good you didn't get up in the middle of the night as Becks only gave an interview at half-time in the end and the game well it wasn't great as the scoreline shows :)
