'Yeah I think it would be great for the children to have the Olympics, like, you know all the children. When I was a child, like we'd have loved it as children, to have, like, the Olympics. Definitely. So I definitely think we should have it for the children. It would definitely be great I think'.

Becks also said it would be great...

"to have the Olympics on my manor"

Is that Manchester or Madrid then ?

How comes in school everyone has to pass exams to stop them feeling useless, but in sport we have to have a winner.

He also, eloquently, said something like:

'Yeah definitely. I mean we give it our best shot and, like, we're even more, sort of, disappointed that the fans are, ya know. So definitely we'll be disappointed to have not beat em, but we definitely did it our best shot.'

He is the archetypal himbo. What a tt.

Still, he's there, and rich. And I'm neither of those things. Hats off to Beckham!

It's actually just as painful to read as to listen to him.

You can virtually see both brain cells working flat out on this one.

Most people's speech, when recorded and transcribed verbatim, is imprecise, incomplete, unclear and contradictory.

Yes, but professional athletes seem to be in a class all there own, especially Boxers.

[yertis]

Not in my case.

I actually speak as Shakespeare wrote.

I tone it down considerably on here, as no-one would understand me.

Come, leave your tears: a brief farewell: the beast
With many heads butts me away. Nay, mother,
Where is your ancient courage? you were used
To say extremity was the trier of spirits;
That common chances common men could bear;
That when the sea was calm all boats alike
Show'd mastership in floating; fortune's blows,
When most struck home, being gentle wounded, craves
A noble cunning: you were used to load me
With precepts that would make invincible
The heart that conn'd them.


See what I mean?

I've met the guy, and hes not that great in front of a camera. I've filmed hundreds of people who are even worse. Give him a break ffs, hes one of the best footballers in the world currently, how many people here could claim to be at the peak of their profession?

Probably quite a few of us...



Having said that... on reflection I don't mean I think that I am. I'm probably more at the peak of my career, a rather different proposition
