Benched Beckham

So David Beckham isn't going to Dallas to play in the SuperLiga match there. What was funny is that as I was trying to ask coach Frank Yallop about this situation, an AP photographer handed Yallop a phone. Apparantly the AP reporter couldn't be there, so they tried to call in and get word on the Beckham saga.

Frank handed off the phone to media director Patrick Donnelly, who ended up holding the phone up while we local reporters were interviewing Frank. Frank's answers to our questions went to whoever it was at AP.

I'm assuming that the AP reporter was at a computer, because AP had the story up first. But it wasn't because of being on location.

Oh well, I got some other quotes AP wasn't able to take, mainly from Landon Donovan.
