haha..the deeper question is why is motorola advertising & selling the rzr in japan...i have one...it's good for basic calling (which is why i got it) but it's shit compared to 99 percent of the japanese fones out there.

Saw that.

Glad I'm not sinkin' my cash on the guy.

it's an amazing sports contract by any measure, in any country...even by lofty American standards in other sports....i'd love to watch a game or two but it'll probably be impossible to get galaxy tickets now....at decent prices that is.

i saw him play last year though when Real Madrid played against the Galaxy in an exhibition match.

anywhoo....like i said they reallly adore the guy in japan...i think he fits the japanese perception/archtype of the ideal Caucasian or something...rich, good looking, famous, skilled, and blonde :hehe:
