David Beckham scored his first goal in the MLS on a beautiful feed from Landon Donovan proving once again aging Europeans and young American stars can tear shit up in the MLS. Here's the highlight:
Alexander Ovechkin of the Washington Capitals, er the NHL team in our nation's capital, you know the pro hockey league? Fuck it, never mind. Alex Ovechkin is likely the league's MVP this season. In a pivotal game against divisional opponent Tampa Bay last night OV scored 2 goals, giving him 65 on the season. Admit it, "O.V. for MVP" has a pretty sweet ring to it. The second goal can be seen at about the 1:30 mark here:
The question is, who has the better celebration? Beckham's double knee slide or Ovechkin's windmilling fist pump? Both guys get pretty excited about their goals, and it's goddamned fun to watch. This is why every sport in the world is better than the NFL. Celebrations like that would force NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to execute a fan's puppy for the betterment of the league's image.
