As others have noted, soccer has been enjoyed by several generations of young people but it hasn't helped raise the sport's profile in the U.S. I think one reason it's so popular for school-aged kids is it's so cheap. There's no special equipment really...just a ball, a big field, and a couple of nets. I played in high school, but have no desire to watch the sport on TV or in person.
I don't expect America will care much about the Beckham's either. The tabloids might be in a tizzy for awhile, but the couple has already been somewhat of a fixture in the tabs here (along with everything related to Princess Diana and her sons) so it's not really going to be anything different.
