Let's hope that the community down there steps up and supports Miami FC, quieting some of the doubters that say soccer won't work in South Florida.
Miami Herald-Miami FC will announce the future of the franchise on Wednesday
I intended to have more, but posting from work is a super slow process, so that's it for now. I hope to be back later with more.
