It's reported that Tom Cruise is to jettison an escape pods from his mother ship and fall to Earth in an attempt to buy complete control of 'LA Galaxy', the football team that's providing David Beckham's latest opportunity to stand on the touchline, look furious and gesticulate at less talented team mates.
Surprisingly, Cruise can pick up the team for less than GBP£40m. I mean surprising in the sense that £40m is less than David's wages for ten months of a single season, so someone more cynical might suggest that Beckham's contract has well and truly broken the bank for the club's current owners.
Just a little something makes me suspect that Cruise isn't going into football to make money.
The minute the diminutive high priest of L Ron Hubbard's ridiculous and parasitical faith sees the headline, "Tom Cruise Takes Over Galaxy," he'll be engorged with such self-lust that half of Hollywood will have to duck as he flings his seedy Engrams all over the shop.
