Of course not. His annual salary is ~$6 Million/year. The rest of his seemingly bloated contract is from endorsements that he will likely earn (and deservedly so). MLS has already profitted from him, so he is not overpaid... if anything, AEG (owners of LA Galaxy) should pay him more.
I like Victoria; no reason not to.

No. He's not getting $1 million week. As the other answerers said, his guaranteed salary is only $6.5 million. That's only $125,000 per week which is about half of the weekly salaries of the top EPL players. But his earnings can go up to $50 million a year in terms of other endorsements plus his cut in ticket sales, jersey sales, and other merchandise sales.
I'd rather leave Victoria alone. She's happy to be Beckham's wife and the mother of their three sons. In June, she refused to stay in the US to film a reality show because she wanted to be in Spain to watch David play for Real Madrid. So her reality show changed from being several episodes to just a 1-hour episode. I think she knows her priorities. Between the reality show and watching Beckham play for Real Madrid, she chose the latter.

All professional footballers/soccer players/whatever you want to call them are overpaid in terms of their playing contracts, but if you can make what he's making in endorsements then fair enough.
I have no opinion on Victoria Beckham, since I don't really pay any attention to her. Live and let live.

How much revenue does professional soccer even produce in the United States? He is overpaid.
They tried this 30 years ago with Pele..trying to get some interest in soccer in the U.S.
It did not work then....and it will not work now...

million $ a week over paid no way.
No one deserves this amount of money its ridiculous. In the old days the people with the most money were kings, educaters, decision makers. Now its the entertainers equivelant of a court jester making all the money????????
