All Burrito know is that the Blues need to wins and get the three points. Lately Burrito's compadre Diego Serna have not score as much and Burrito think it is because he no get passes up there because we need attacking midfielder that we not have since Leo Inacio has been hurt. So that make Diego go down to look for balls so he no score like he should. Burrito is happy that Paulo Jr. is one bad ass macho man and playing like and running like he eat Hot chile!

Miami wants in on MLS! New grassroots effort has begun...

South Florida Soccer Fans have been kicked around by critics, Major League Soccer and timid investors, So miamisoccerfan.com has decided to let their voices be heard.
They have launched a campaign to acquire as many “season ticket dedications” as possible for a potential Major League Soccer team in Miami. A “season ticket dedication” is basically a pledge that if Miami does get a Major League Soccer team, you will buy season tickets. Miamisoccerfan continues:

We need as many season ticket dedications as possible to enhance support for our case of getting an MLS team in the near future. If you want to do more than just sign up for a season ticket dedication, send an e-mail to all your friends to get them to sign up or join the Ultras at our events as we will be canvassing the local soccer community trying to get dedications.

South Florida is being called out. After half ass attempts to bring an MLS team to Miami it is the fans who will determine if we ever have an MLS team in South Florida. Time to step up people, time to tell the world the last great season of the Miami Fusion (2001) was not a fluke. Time to tell the world the Ft Lauderdale Strikers of the old NASL was not a fluke, that South Florida can and will support a professional Soccer team if the owners and investors do the right marketing and are willing to give this market the chance it needs to succeed.

USA and Miami FC lose, Ultras at Republica Deportiva and more

It was a tough Sunday in many ways for the Miami Ultras. Once again we were invited to attend Univision's Republica Deportiva for the USA vs Mexico Gold Cup final. Everything was great, confidence was high. The Mexican fans chanted their typical Mexican tunes while the Ultras began to drown them out with our incessant USA! USA! USA! One of us started to yell "USA es tu papa" (USA is your daddy!) and that became the hymn until the second half when the Mexicans were awarded a penalty. It was to mark the end for the U.S. After that we received such a whooping that it will last us a life time!

I've always been a critic of Bob Bradley, never liked his methods or tactics, but his recent good luck at the Confederations Cup and now the recent Gold Cup results; considering we played without any first team players (save Ching who I never thought was that good anyway) will preserve him inevitably as the coach, even though we lost another final this time by 5-0. Ouch!

Asking for his head is futile at this point. Too close to World Cup Qualifying to do that and we've managed to stay in it and should make it to the WC unless some major catastrophe develops.

The Ultras were crushed by the USA loss and to add insult to injury while on the Univision set we received the information that Miami FC also lost against the Carolina Railhawks 4-0... read more HERE . it was not a good day for the Blues and a terrible day for the Ultras.

Check out some pictures at Univision:

For more pictures check out the Ultras site

I need to point out 2 great pieces over at the Miami Ultra site. First, Robert Scorca's piece on the history of South Florida Soccer. He takes us back to the days of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers! Great pictures and great history check it out HERE

Derek Reese then takes us on a ride with his dream piece "If I were a billionaire" with Stadium pictures and enough detail that I do hope somehow Derek becomes a Billionaire!

Paulo Jr Scores twice to give Miami FC a victory over the Thunder

Miami FC played a tough match versus the Minnesota Thunder defeating them by 2-1. A group of Miami Fans led by the Miami Ultras along with Miami FC staff and a few players watched the game at Fritz & Franz in Coral Gables and were delighted by the hospitality and great beer! The ambiance was set for what would be a memorable match for Blues fans.

It was Paulo Araujo Jr's night as he proves to once again be the main catalyst in Miami FC's attack. Paulo Jr. is in my opinion the best player so far this season. He has been instrumental in just about every match he has participated in. But enough with the talk check out the video of the second goal.

A Tribute to el Taco Bell Chihuahua by Burrito

Burrito once suggest to Miami FC staff to bring back the Taco Bell chihuahua and put her on the Miami FC jersey, pero they all laugh at Burrito.
Si, Burrito know this not futbol related, pero for this once Burrito want to give eulogy for this wonderful chihuahua that give burrito so much joy and pleasant night time satisfaction after burrito go to concerts and fiestas. Taco Bell will never be the same without Gidget, the chihuahua. The chimichangas, the quesadillas and all the taquitos that we all love and desire late at night when everything else is closed will never, ever, whevers be the same.
She was a beautiful bitch... and she will be missed... Hasta luego Chihuahua de mi amor, hasta la vista! May you chase many gatos up in doggie heavens!

Cheerleaders to the rescue!

Miami FC has been working on getting fans to FIU Stadium and one strategy is to work with the FIU Cheerleaders.

FIU recently had a budget reduction which affected the Cheerleaders and other Athletic Department programs. I was able to get in touch with Tommy Knapp, Director of Tickets/Hospitality for Miami FC and he pointed out the following:

First, the FIU Cheerleaders will be at the games from here on to help raise funds for their program through a number of initiatives. They will be cheering at the remainder of our home games. They will be selling tickets to Miami FC home games on campus and in the S FLA community. They will also be joining in promotional outings such as festivals, soccer related tournaments, charity events, etc. The objective is to join forces and develop greater awareness, community support and revenue streams for both organizations.There are 42 girls on the team who will all be involved, with 15 of them acting as the main Miami FC cheer team. The team is lead by Maria George, a former Dolphin cheerleader.

Oh no, We suck again! by Burrito

Tonite Burrito jump fence at FIU stadium only to see 300 peoples show up to a game no vato in Miami knew was taking place. There were no signs, except for one that say "Colombian Festival" where there was thousands of cars not far from FIU Stadium. Burrito talk to some Colombianos and tell them to come to game. They no even know Miami FC exist!!! Chingada madre! On tops of that Miami play terrible futbol. Burrito think they would play like Friday's game where Los Azules were close to winning. Pero no, it not happen this time. Portland came to destroy Miami and in second half hit us with 3 goles. More on game at Miami FC site

Miami FC beats the Vancouver Whitecaps will now face the Portland Timbers

"With key players such as Diego Serna out, Miami FC continued its recent strong play and defeated Vancouver 2-1 at FIU Stadium." Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald

Things are looking good for the Blues on the field as they remain unbeaten at FIU Stadium. Miami looked strong in the first half and could have increased the score if their players had better aim. Numerous opportunities were wasted. Miami took a 1-0 lead in the 5th minute on a goal by Alan Marcina. Leo Inacio made it 2-0 on a penalty kick awarded after defender Jeff Parke grabbed the ball in the area with his hands.

The Second half saw the Whitecaps come on strong in search of some goals but it wasn't until a red card given to Alen Marcina towards the end of the match that the Whitecaps were able to score with only two minutes left in the game. Dever Orgill gave Vancouver some hope but the game was sealed, final 2-1 for the Blues.

With the win, Miami FC is in sixth place and is only four points behind the Rochester Rhinos. The Blues will now play two consecutive games against the second place Timbers on Friday 8PM and Sunday 6PM at FIU Stadium. For more information visit www.miamifc.com

Perdomo was recently on Republica Deportiva where incidentally the Miami Ultras also appeared (You can see the video in a post below). For more thoughts and the direction this is taking the team read this Miami Ultra piece called "Traffic Sports 2 Miami FC 0"

Soccer Roof Top in Miami, with pictures and video...

This past Friday our good friend at Miami FC, Ignacio Rodriguez invited us over to Soccer Roof Top for a game of 6 on 6 and I must say it was a great experience! To think we only played one hour. But it was enough for me to realize I need to go again.
Surrounded by high rises and just off Brickell, the view is spectacular and though playing on a synthetic field it only takes a few minutes before you get a hang of how to play on this surface. The field is 56 feet by 110 feet and you play caged in so you don't lose the ball. There are 2 fields but you'll need to call in to reserve just in case. But enough with the writing, let the pictures speak for themselves.



Located at Rivergate Plaza, 444 Brickell Ave. Miami FL, 33131 Phone: 786-493-7167
