Beckham may sit out today … again

David Beckham may be returning to the bench just three days after making his Major League Soccer debut.

Beckham aggravated his injured left ankle earlier this week and will be a game-time decision when the Los Angeles Galaxy play the New England Revolution today.

Beckham stretched and jogged on the sidelines during Saturday’s practice while his teammates went through drills and an intrasquad scrimmage in Foxborough, Mass.

Woods, Walsh friends to a point

PGA Championship-leading Tiger Woods told Golf World magazine that Bill Walsh was like “my father away from home” when Woods was a freshman at Stanford and Walsh was on campus in his second stint as football coach and, later, as an administrator.

“He took an interest in me, and I enjoyed the heck out of just shooting the breeze with him about anything,” Woods said. “I felt privileged.”

Woods didn’t listen on every subject, apparently.

“Bill was a genius and a friend, but I was always and still am an Oakland Raiders fan,” Woods said.

Cowboys owner makes big moves

Have you seen the commercial featuring Jerry Jones breakdancing? The Dallas Cowboys have, and they’re having a lot of fun razzing the team owner about it.

“I guess that destroys the myth that white people can’t dance,” Terrell Owens said.

“I haven’t seen him do that before – and I hope I don’t see him do it again,” cracked coach Wade Phillips.

The 30-second commercial opens with Jones in the locker room giving the team a harsh lecture against dancing in the end zone when he’s interrupted by a pizza delivery. Jones turns, smiles and starts shimmying to the music, his limbs seemingly turning to jelly.

He looks even more limber than he did a few years ago when he did backflips in another commercial.

“That’s why I got the job, they knew I could dance,” Jones said.
