Are you kidding me? is this article for real?


David Beckham's truncated contract arrangement with Major League Soccer, one that returns him to the U.S. in the summer to play perhaps 13 games left in the season, was apparently too little, too late to save the proposed Barcelona Miami MLS team that investor Marcelo Claure was working launch in Florida in 2010.

I encourage you to read more, this article seems absurd.

Quite honestly that sounds a lot like "The plan is going to shit, who or what can we blame it on?"

Just goes to show you what frauds they were. Barcelona thought they could come into MLS and throw their weight around like the European superclub they behave. They were in it to market their brand across America. The fact that they chose a loser sports market that had their MLS team contracted shows how clueless they were. Good riddence to them and don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
