Thank Goodness for the Beckhams

David and Victoria Beckham, it’s at times like this that we truly appreciate your respective hotness. Or would that be hotnesses?

In one corner, you have the Roger Clemens-Brian McNamee edition of Days of Our Lives. Adding to the overall “WTF?”-ness of the whole steroid shebang is the latest McNamee bombshell that he also injected the 7-time Cy Young winner’s wife Debbie Clemens with HGH.

But in another corner, thankfully, you have the Beckhams. They’re not embroiled in a steroid abuse scandal, they’re not licking their Super Bowl wounds as we imagine Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen are, and they aren’t having a pre-Pro Bowl PDA-fest in Hawaii like Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson. They’re just being their sexy selves.

And the world shows its gratitude: David just got a World’s Sexiest Footballer* title while Victoria “Posh Spice” got a World’s Sexiest Mom nod from Victoria’s Secret (and if they say something’s sexy, we believe ‘em) as well as a coveted Project Runway guest judge spot.

Now of course, it would be much more fun to cover the Beckhams if they did something naughty (publicly), but sometimes it’s just nice to enjoy the pretty people as they are.

*Um, obviously this doesn’t refer to American Football, or it would have been a tie with Tom Brady.
