If no one follows it, then why does ESPN air it?

They pretty much figure Miami would tap into the Cuban community there, so they believe there is a base for a soccer team.


I know plenty of people that do. Myself included.

Sadly, a bunch of tools follow MLS and they'll be especially unbearable when the World Cup rolls around. They're the types that talk about "CLINT DEMPSEY, BRO!!!"

As for this Miami team, I forget who mentioned it on Twitter but look for a bunch of aged Italian players to make the jump. Italians love Miami.
