You Write the Caption: Beckham and the Yeti

Good afternoon folks. I’m about an hour from departing to Salzburg and figured I could leave you with a You Write the Caption before I go.

Yes, I know, I still owe everybody the winners for the Oguchi Onyewu/Rafael Marquez YWTC, but when I saw this photo I had to post it.

Here is David Beckham and LA teammate Abel Xavier, whose head looks like its being humped by a baby polar bear:

"David Beckham is reminded why he gave up trying different hair styles and stuck with the shaved head."

"After seeing what the microphone did to Abel Xavier, David Beckham realizes he had better try a different mic."

Okay, I gave it two tries. Now it’s your turn. Give me your caption sugestions and I’ll post winners next week.

Fire away.

  9. Dang it Stan…beat me to the punch. I was going to say:

    Nearly 6 years since his last cap, Xavier launches campaign to gain Japanese citizenship–Becks lends “full support”.

  10. 1: “I thought this was LaLa-Land… not Never Neverland.”
