[Archived] Beckham Miami

[ABBEY]

Just watching news conference .. Beckham owns a new team in Miami .

[rhodie]

Meh!

[M-K]

Is there money in being a club owner over there? Most clubs in this country seem to be vanity projects / follies.

Florida has loads of Hispanic people, the MLS is growing and the USA can organise a sport so that it can generate loads of money so I guess it can be a good thing to back.

They were debating names for this new team. I reckon given that he's founded them, 'Miami Becks' sounds suitably american.

Hoover, since Miami was built on cocaine money.

Have they not decided on a name yet?

Really, I was thinking Dolphin showers, or maybe Tsing Tao beer unless there is a better named beer out there,

or Miami spice

The popular (but @#/?) German lager of the same name?
