"I might actually cry when I see him walk onto the pitch. I've realized as I get older I get more emotional. I look at my kids I get emotional, I talk to my kids and my wife I get emotional. So I think the moment i see Leo step out onto the pitch in front of our fans, in front of this nation ... I don't know, I'll be emotional for sure."-Inter Miami part-owner David Beckham on Lionel Messi's first game this Friday.

I used to me known in my own family for never crying. But like Becks, I have found that as I got older, and I am now flagrantly, flamboyantly OLD, I cry at the drop of a hap. Weird thing, that.
