Happy Retirement, David Beckham!

David Beckham Victoria Beckham

David Beckham has announced that he’s retiring from soccer (okay, okay, “football”) at the end of the current season. Beckham is not the greatest player ever by any stretch of the imagination, but he’s pretty damned good — and he’s undoubtedly one of the most popular players in the history of the sport. That, of course, has a lot to do not only with his play, but also with his handsomeness, marketing savvy, and wife — Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham.

Since David is so doggone photogenic, we decided to run a photo gallery to honor his retirement. And yes, Victoria Beckham may pop up in a few of these shots as well.
