Gasp! David Beckham Has Asthma; He’s Not Alone

David Beckham was seen on the sidelines of the MLS Cup inhaling asthma medicine on Sunday night. People are shocked because he’s supposedly had asthma since he was 9 and no one, NOT ANYONE knew this. David Beckham is also 007. However, surprisingly, a lot of people have asthma. In fact, some UK doctor named Mike Thomas, said: “Asthma is particularly common among elite sportspeople like Paul Scholes and Paula Radcliffe, who both suffer with the condition, proof that asthma needn’t stop you competing at the highest level.” We don’t know who those blokes are, but we do know few other elite asthletes.
