If any city in FL gets their own team I guess Orlando is it. Looks like they have a good chance of getting an MLS team now. My predictions go like this.

Miami
Orlando
Atlanta
Minneapolis

Not really in particular order. I figure 2 cities get announced next year and then the other 2 around 2017 or 2018.

I am thinking it'll be in that order. Miami and Atlanta enter at the same time, then Atlanta and Minneapolis/someone else enter a couple years later.

ATL and MIN both need to get a stadium situation figured out, and so does Miami, but I think if Beckham wants ownership of Miami then they will do something similar to NYCFC and give them a franchise even though they are still getting a stadium situation finalized. I dunno if ATL and Minneapolis will get the same kind of benefit from MLS necessarily.

I can see Miami playing at FIU until they get a stadium. Sun Life would just been so empty it would be sad. I do like the thought of a team in Atlanta, but I would much rather them come to Nashville. Anyways, it would be nice if they had a rival. I guess the FL clubs and DC would be about it.

No way St Louis doesn't get a team! They have the money, fans and an instant rivalry w/ Sporting and Colorado. It would be a HOMERUN!

I agree with you there. Did they have a representative at the All Star Game?

If Florida gets 2 teams, I will start to seriously question every decision the MLS makes.

Well this is the league that thought Chivas USA was a good idea.
