When David Beckham took the field Wednesday night, making his first start
in a LA Galaxy jersey, he had one very distinguishing accessory to his
uniform. It wasn't a new haircut or a new tattoo -- he was wearing the
captain's armband.

當Becks星期三(8/15)晚上首發上場時，他的球衣上有個非常特別的裝飾品
不是新髮型或是新刺青，而是他正戴著隊長臂章。

All season long Landon Donovan had been the Galaxy's captain, but earlier
in the week had decided to hand the honor over to his new teammate.

Donovan當了整季的隊長，但是早在本週就已經決定把這項榮譽轉交他的新隊友。

"I'm not stupid and I'm not naive. (Beckham) is someone who's been a captain
for England, one of the better teams in the world," said Donovan. "For me
it's not as important to wear the armband. I'm going to play the same way
and act the same way towards guys whether I have that or not. For me I think
it made him immediately a part of the team in a real sense."

Donovan："我不愚蠢也不天真。Becks曾擔任過英格蘭這支世界上很好的球隊隊長"
"對我而言，戴著那個臂章並不重要。無論是否有那臂章，我都會用同樣的方式去
踢比賽和面對。對我來說，我想那可以使他真正理解到他是隊上的一份子。

The decision to make Beckham captain was Donovan's. It wasn't a case of head
coach Frank Yallop deciding there needed to be a change. It was a choice made
between two teammates, and the Galaxy manager had nothing but praise for
both of his players about the move.

決定推選Becks為隊長的是Donovan。這不是教練Yallop決定需要去改變的。
這是兩名隊員之間做的選擇，Galaxy經理沒做什麼但表揚了這兩名隊員。

"Landon and David had a discussion Monday or Tuesday. I basically left it
up to Landon," said Yallop. "He felt David was the captain and he wanted
him to have that role. You've got to tip your hat to Landon. David obviously
accepted it and did very well with it."

教練Yallop："Donovan和Becks在星期一或星期二討論了這件事。我基本上認為
Donovan該留著臂章。Donovan感到Becks應該要當隊長並且他希望他是。
你們應該要尊敬Donovan。Becks接受臂章並且做的非常好。"

The move also helped integrate Beckham into the team. In addition to leading
through his play on the field Wednesday night, he was also a vocal leader as
well. From his arrival, there has always been a level of respect in the
locker room between Beckham and the rest of the Galaxy, even more so between
he and Donovan. Both have captained their respective national teams, which
made Beckham almost reluctant to accept the offer.

這個舉動也幫助Becks融入隊伍。除了星期三晚上在球場上領導以外，他也是個聲音
領導者。自從他到來，Becks在更衣室裡和其他人之間總是備受尊敬，甚至是Becks與
Donovan也是如此。兩位都分別是各自的國家隊隊長，因此使Becks更不願意接受臂章。

"I'm very honored that (Donovan) felt the need to give me the armband and
the fact that it would lift the players and the team," said Beckham.
"Hopefully it will do that. (Donovan's) a great player; one of the best in
this country and one of the best in this league. Like I said, I was honored
to receive the armband from him."

Becks："我對Donovan認為有需要給我臂章並且可以幫助隊員與球隊這件事，感到非常
榮幸。滿懷希望去做到，Donovan是個很棒的球員；是這國家上和這聯賽上最好的球員
之一。就像我說的，我非常榮幸從他那裡收到隊長臂章。

Donovan was impressed himself with the way Beckham handled the situation.
According to him, it's the best move for the club.

Donovan對Becks處理這事情的方式上留下了深刻印象。據他說，這是對球隊最好的
舉動。

"He was polite and said 'I'm fine not wearing it. If I do wear it I'd be
happy to do it. I don't want to step on your toes or anybody's toes,'"
said Donovan about Beckham. "He was a great leader and I think he's going
to be."

Donovan談起Becks："Becks非常有禮貌且說「我不戴著臂章很好。如果我戴著我
會非常高興。但我不想冒犯你或是任何人。」他是一位偉大的領導者，而且我認為
他將是。"

英文翻譯好難啊 (╯‵□′)╯︵ ┴─┴ 有錯請指教

話說當初看到他戴著隊長臂章的時候，我還以為我看錯了
以為那場Donovan沒有上場還是什麼之類的
畢竟，一個新人才剛去就當隊長，非常囧啊！
我超怕Becks去那裡被排擠的，就這樣當隊長，難道其他隊友不會在心裡OS嗎
又不是像Newcastle的新隊長是因為舊隊長走才可以選新人出來的

直到看到新聞發佈我才鬆了一口氣，至少那不是教練說要他當的
但是心裡也是認為Donovan沒有必要這樣做，這不是很怪嗎 ╮(﹀_﹀")╭
就算Becks曾是英格蘭的隊長，可Donovan也是美國隊的隊長啊

但是老實說，身為Becks迷，看到他當上隊長，說不開心是騙人的啊啊啊啊！！！

8/15對DC United的那場比賽，也開了些紀錄
Becks首次首發上場
首次以隊長身份出場
首次助攻
首次進球

Becks，你好樣的！
