The Cruises and the Beckhams are obviously good friends these days. The like to hang out and seem to enjoy each other’s company. According to the celebrity website janetcharltonshollywood, Tom Cruise and David Beckham are not only buddies, but are on the road to becoming business partners.

According to a friend of the guys, they’re plotting to team up and buy a soccer team. David is still an awesome player but his career is winding down and he wants to go from soccer player to team owner. Theoretically, the combined star power of David and Tom would attract the biggest and best players. The guys are keeping their plans quiet for now but they’re crunching numbers to put a deal together.

I have no idea if this rumor is close to being remotely true, but I do believe they would make an awesome and powerful team. I went to see Beckham play in a soccer game way back in the 90’s and it was quite enjoyable to say the least. :)

    Wow. That would be SO COOL!

    Of course, being Italian, I think soccer is THE greatest sport! ;-)

    Of course, not being an official report, but just a rumor, we don’t know yet where it’s going…

    wouldn’t these two men be better advised to buy their wives a good, hearty, calourie filled meal?

    LOL Amy. I wish they would come to me and ask me which team they would buy. I love Italian football and I would recommend they buy a team in Italy.

    It is just a rumour and I am sure it will soon be denied.

    Amy you are too funny! I can actually see this being true. Tom is a sports nut, so why not buy a Soccer team with that HOT hunk David Beckman. Any team David is involved in will have great success, so I am sure Tom would jump on the chance to partner up with him. I would love to go to a game and my goal, would be to get in that owners box.

    I think I remember reading a story like this last year! Sounds like someone needs their name associated with the other so they can get into the papers!!

    I’m sure Tom would LOVE to be involved with David Bckham in very MANY different kinds of adventures.
