My birthday song, my happy world (Part 269)....

 Badass Birthday

On this date, in 1975, in London, David Beckham was born. 


I'm gonna be honest with you, I know next to nothing about professional soccer.  I know rudimentarily how the game is played.  But teams, players, coaches, etc...nope, no idea.  So that fact that I know who David Beckham is says a lot about how famous he is. 

I know he's played for Manchester United, I think the Madrid team, and the LA Galaxy.  Could be other teams, who knows?  I know he married a Spice Girl.  I know he made famous the faux-hawk hairstyle years ago when it was in fashion.  I know he's got a couple kids, at least one boy, Brooklyn, who apparently is kinda estranged from his parents.  And I know he's a mulit-millionaire, if not billionaire by now. 

And again, the fact that I know all this about him, when I know nothing about professional soccer and don't follow celebrities with any sort of regularity, just shows what a badass he actually is!
