Abusing Reuters again: football pictures! (Warning: big pictures!)

England captain David Beckham (2nd-R) celebrates with team mates Nicky Butt (L) Emile Heskey (3rd-L), Ashley Cole (4th-L) and Paul Scoles (R) after Michael Owen (2nd-L) scored his first goal against Slovakia during their Euro 2004 Group Seven qualifying match in Bratislava October 12 2002.

He is sofuckingbeautiful:

This has got to win some sort of price for best picture headline ever:

Funniest picture of the bunch:
