"He is tough, it's a rare man who can be that tough on the field and also have his own line of underwear."

The fact that the President of the United States is compelled to think about David Beckham's pants when he meets him makes us feel a little better about our own response towards those ads.

The whole family celebrated Brooklyn's coming of age on Sunday, which started with a boys-only outing to the LA Lakers game (they ate nachos, chatted up Denzel Washington)Â followed by a "huge party" at the Beckham compound.
