(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) But I can understand you, you have your reasons. There have been times when media has gone out of line with the whole Beckham thing, and to be brutally frank, that's uncalled for. |

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Feb 8 2009, 04:49 AM) The reason they said Beckham/Jose is because they have a profile over here and BBC is English.. it'd hardly appeal to people over here if it was "Maldini's Milan vs Zanetti's Inter" or something. Exactly. I'm just grateful that I will be able to watch it live on tv, hopefully if we can sign Becks then our profile will be raised over here and I will be able to see more games on tv (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) |

One thing that's really positive about Beckham playing for Milan is that the club (and Serie A as a whole) is getting more coverage in the English media. Because of that, it's by relation getting more coverage here (keep in mind that Fox Soccer Channel is Sky Sports' redheaded American stepchild). They even devote 30 minutes of the 2 hour call in show to Serie A - and they talk about it seriously rather than the 'Italians are corrupt, the league sucks, etc' litany we've gotten for the past few years.

I think if Beckham does sign for Milan permanently, we'll get coverage next season. Maybe even on BBC, which is far superior to Five. Afterall, we even got that MLS roundup show hosted by Tim Lovejoy went over to the states, so I'm sure we'll get something Serie A related.

I never knew FSC was Sky Sports. Beckham will pretty much give Milan more coverage all over the World, which is fantastic since we're from all over the World here on MF! |

Im pretty happy that BBC are showing it, although im gonna need to a find someone with BBC3 (hell a TV first) at uni.
BBC commentators arent that bad usually, but i suspect there may be some pro Milan sentiments due to Beckham |

The match will be boring, the best players will underperform and Serie A will be labeled a crappy league.
