817...Bend It With Beckham

In Montreal where the MLS, Major League Soccer, is poised to put a team for the 2012 season the New York Times reports that David Beckham would like to be involved as an owner of the team along with Montreal gazillionaire Joey Saputo.

The Philadelphia Union will join the league next season, while Vancouver and Portland enter the fold in 2011.

MLS commissioner Don Garber has confirmed numerous times that he wants Montreal in the league. The city is a nice fit for both Mr. Beckham and the league. It has a cosmopolitan population, a nice fan base and also has a strong fashion industry component which would be great for Victoria Beckham who is a player in that industry.
