I've never been a huge fan of Beckham coming to MLS. The whole thing smacked of bringing in the pretty show pony, except that this pony had his eyes focused elsewhere and not with the rest of the herd.
It was with great glee that I saw Grant Wahl's continued questioning of Beckham and his commitment to MLS at a press conference. Beckham didn't help himself with the snarky beginning to his answer referencing Grant's book. At this point, I think it's best if MLS cut ties with the man, and let him on his merry way. Despite what news pundits said when Beckhamania first hit, MLS didn't need him to save the league. The bump in awareness for the league has been nice, but as with most fads, this one is waning.
