    Where is Sanda anyway? Still trying to get her long-zoom lense and film back from South African customs? Accidentally locked herself in the closet of Beckham's hotel room in Rustenburg? Or has she simply escalated and is strapped beneath the Beckhams' car, Cape Fear style?

    yes, exactly. :D

    did she go to the WC? it is strange that it's been so long since we've heard from her, especially when there's been all manner of Beckham banter to keep her occupied.

    I've no idea. I was just joking about her being there as she seemed... let's use the word "keen"... when it came to Becks.

    It is odd that she's not around though.

    totally changing the subject back to the thread title....
    La Gazzetta gave this little blurb: Proposta Galaxy: "Donovan per Dinho". meaning the Galaxy are proposing a swap for Ronaldinho. I couldnt find any article at all or anything else written and I don't for one moment buy this, but, thought it might be worth mentioning...

    I guess I'm buying into all these Ronaldinho rumors because I really expect the Galaxy to announce his signing within the next week and I expect him to make his debut in front of close to 100k people versus Real Madrid. My hunch would sound crazy if not for the fact that I am a LA Galaxy fan, and then it sounds totally logical.

    I got curious and overrode my Ignore list to check. She's been posting some on BS, just not here. My guess is that she won't be back until Beckham is.

    Ives is currently having a live chat session right now and some asked him a question regarding the Ronaldihno to LA rumors. The following was his response:

    12:45
    I've heard rumors that Ronaldinho has already had a photo shoot ahead of his MLS arrival, so it sure does sound like he's on the way. Ronaldinho's agent/brother came out today though denying it, so we'll see.

    this has been one of the most confusing, craziest rumors that can go either way that I've ever heard.

    You are actually believing Ronaldinho's brother??:D:D I have a big feeling that he has signed with the Galaxy and will be play against Real Madrid.

    I think it's done as a deal. He ain't coming. Too much lately confirming it.

    So who's next? With NY getting Henry and, if you believe some sources, Marquez, maybe we need to find a suitable striker to keep up with the league. Seeing Gordo last night made me feel antsy for one badly. So is it Raul time -- that would be exciting for the Aug. 7th game. ;)

    My two cents:

    The Dinho thing is typical of the hullabaloo surrounding the big players, and Dinho's brother shops Dinho around like he's selling door-to-door carpet. I'd have to put that one in the 'we'll see' category. Conflicting reports about Dinho in an LA Galaxy photo shoot, on the one hand, and him committing himself to Milan, on the other.

    If not Dinho, then who? Not sure. Raul is inches from singing with Schalke.

    Materazzi: hell no. But not because he's Italian. And not because he's old. Because he's not good any more.

    This is what I agree with, Dinho's brother/agent wants to make this out to be a big move (a la Lebron).

    Personally, I think Lando will go to England (although I prefer him to stay) and the Galaxy will use some of that money to buy Dinho.

    PS - sorry to use lebron and bbal, I hate both bball and lebron.

    Dinho is almost past his prime. But he would have put lots of butts in the seats and sold jerseys like hot cakes.

    Oh well.

    Who can the Galaxy look for now? When does the transfer window end? Isn't it soon?
