He suffered an injury the first day of practice, and that's why he didn't come in until around the 88th minute.

In this interview of him I saw he said something about being amazed that the amount of press turned up, but to be honest, I'm pretty sure they were there for the more famous faces such as : Jennifer Love Hewitt, Eva Longoria, Tony Parker, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ray Winston. Sure there were more though :\
No, they were definitely there for Beckham. There was so much hype around his debut the past couple weeks in the US. They're playing this like one of the biggest sports debuts in US history. It's interesting, but way overhyped.

I honestly doubt he'll bring soccer in the US to the level that Pele brought the it back in the 70s with the New York Cosmos. I doubt he'll come anywhere near close to that.
