DAVID BECKHAM, OH, PURE GENIUS. >> James: THE 2019 L.A. GALAXY SEASON IS GOING TO KICK OFF WHICH HUGE SERMON HONORING THEIR GREATE EVER PLAYER DAVID BECKHAM. TO CELEBRATE HIS CAREER WITH THE 2K3W58 AXEY THE TEAM HAS BUILT A BRAND NEW STATUE OF DAVID WITH WHICH THEY WILL UNVEIL FOR THE FIRST TIME RIGHT HERE AT THIS STADIUM IN FRONT OF 25,000 PEOPLE. NOW DAVID IS A GOOD FRIEND OF MINE AND WHEN I HEARD THAT HE HASN'T SEEN THE FULLY FINISHED STATUE YET, I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE FUN TO SWITCH OUT THE REAL STATUE WITH ONE THAT WE MADE A LITTLE LESS FLATTERING. IN ORDER TO PULL THIS OFF OUR PROPS DEPARTMENT WILL TO FIND THE RIGHT BALANCE BETWEEN REALISTIC AND ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. HE SAID WHEN HE SAW THE FIRST HE SAID THAT HE THOUGHT THE CHIN WAS TOO BIG AND THE BUTT WAS TOO BIG. THIS IS WHAT I AM THINKING, IS WE HE CAN GO BIGGER O ON THE CHIN. AFTER TWO MONTHS OF GRUELING WORK, WE BROUGHT THE STATUE TO THE STADIUM FOR A PRIVATE UNVEILING FOR DAVID. >> THE STATUE IS FINISH AND HERE IT IS RIGHT HERE IN ALL ITS GLORY.
