A response to Beckham to miss L.A. game at Coliseum My own view on this is that if soccer-football in the USA wants to be a big league on the USA sportsfield is that it needs to lift its "game"up and only to regard David Beckham as on his retirement project.In short you should prepare for the long haul and just use this as a kick-starter for a more complete development of the USA soccer-football sports code.
