David Beckham is rescuing families in broken down cars

David Beckham, surveying the land for people he can save.

When he's not impregnating his wife, impressing Spurs manager Harry Redknapp on the training ground, or being too fit to join the L.A. Galaxy's preseason camp on time, Davey Becks is apparently cruising the streets of England, helping people in need.

From the AP:

Beckham pulled over during morning rush hour near a roundabout in the townof Ware in England. He assisted photographer Paul Long and his two children.

Long had been ignored by other motorists before the soccer star came to hisrescue. He said Beckham asked if they were OK, and Long said he asked for a pushto the side of the road.

Long told BBC Radio on Wednesday he said, Thanks David, I love you asthe former England captain returned to his car.

"Thanks David, I love you"? Wow, that's almost too perfect to possibly be a stilted, yet perfectly orchestrated PR stunt. Almost.

Somehow finding a way to assume this series of events really did happen within the natural course of unscripted life, Davey now joins Inter's Wesley Sneijder as the two selfless footballers who have proven their superiority to the common man in yet another way by helping motorists in distress. This might prove that David Beckham is actually Batm! an.
