So far I have seen no colors, names, stadium design, or anything else associated with the team.

Cubans and Dominicans have 0 fricks to give about soccer.

Being in the city doesn't mean shite, just look at the Marlins new stadium.

Miami is a shitty sports town period. Just look at the heat.

The geographical reference is meant to be taken sarcastically you map nerds.

Trust me, most people in Miami view the Orlando crowd and the Tallahassee crowd the same. It's a stereotype....that's the point. If you want to get technical, not all Miami is glitzy and rich either. I guess I should go examine the demographical statistics.

Rant off.

So I'm guessing you wouldn't want to invest in Beckham's ownership group?

BTW, regarding colors...the scarfs in the videos show black and blue. No idea if that is official.

Miami is an iffy sports market no doubt. There is real risk here.

Still, this is a unique situation. I think Beckham has a chance to draw star power to the club. But where I really think he has an opportunity to tie this club into Miami's culture and bond with the city is through establishment of a first class academy with direct involvement by him.

I'm looking forward to the process.
