7:00 normally true but Miami is different. Miami's latino population is mostly Latino-Caribbean: Cubans, PRs & Dominicans. That means they play and watch baseball over anything else, which is part of why no one gave a damn when the team was having so many issues securing land.

Yeah people think all Latinos are the same. Miami does have a big Colombian community though, and a lot of their Latino academy players are of Colombian origins.
@Fred West the word was invented to differentiate between rugby and soccer because back then both sports were called football and too avoid confusion the brits came up soccer and rugby. Countries like The USA, canada, australia, and even in ireland use soccer cause they refer to other sports as football (aussie football, Gaelic football, american football) , so you gotta stop getting your panties twisted over a word
@Fred West if you know all this why are you getting butthurt over the word, some of these folks share the same passion for the game as any European/south american fan
@Fred West 😑 did you even read what i said, they use soccer so they don't cause confusion in their countries with the other sports after years of using the word ,these folks get accustomed to it, even if they know it really should be called football , it never occurs in their head while their writing a comment or talking to someone about football , you just gotta leave them be, no matter how much yall say its football their still gonna keep calling it soccer
6:40: The Tampa Bay Rowdies were not an MLS team, they were an old NASL team who play in the USL Championship now. The MLS team in Tampa was called the Mutiny.
@@starkai6806 Ok but lots of people care. Despite what it's made out to be, the MLS is an entertaining, fun league, and while it might not be the highest quality, it's fun to watch
The lack of consequnce for failure is just a breeding ground for pedestrian football. In fact American sports rewards failure by giving the 1st draft picks to the worst teams, surely creating a culture where being "bang average" is disadvantageous
This is an absolute homer case but I'd love to hear you cover St. Louis City SC's extemely long journey to the MLS. Why is the MLS's newest franchise in it's arguably most historic city? It was supposed to be an original franchise, what happened? Also it's Saint Louis like the New Orleans Saints and Lewis Hamilton. Loved this vid!
First of all it’s known as the University of Miami or “Da U”. Second of all this video is the perfect length. Third of all so glad he brought an MLS team to Miami #lafamilia
Becks has done so well fir himself that his football playing has become underrated. He was a great player , never stopped giving his all for the team and was involved in so many goals. He’s come a long way, nearly as far as the remarkable turnaround of Gary Neville who was probably most hated player to now most loved ex player pundit 😂
once big companies realize how much football will grow in the US and how much money there is in the sport, we'll see the big improvement. Investors just need to see the money
Funny thing is, as Alfie mentioned that Beckham should instead buy Hull City out of the Allams, he actually did in an alternate universe. I play a save of FM 16 where in the 2015-2016 season, Hull City was promoted again to the Premier League and again reached the FA Cup final while finishing second in the Championship, under then manager Steve Bruce. In the first season back to the Premier League and playing in the Europa League, David Beckham bought the club and now acting as the chairman. The transaction also handed Hull City with a handsome wage and transfer budget.
The MLS is a league that will quickly become a league that stars will come to flock to. The climate, the money, the popularity as the sport rises will turn the tide of the league in the next 5-7 years.
All time Premier League 11 vs All time La Liga 11 And same could be done for other Leagues SeriesA, League1 and Bundisliga As a Series and ranking which league comes 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th in historic 11s.

Watching this 2 years later, Miami Freedom Park still doesn't exist. At least they meanwhile got the go from the City of Miami, and the Stadium is supposed to be opened for the 2025 season
Technically they are divisions, but they can’t ever get promoted or relegated. The only way USL teams can make it to the MLS is if they pay a bunch of 💰 Edit: Just realized what you meant, agree 100%
The American club team of Inter Miami is a very exciting and interesting project, I think there is a lot of potential with David Beckham project in the United States. MLS which is the USA soccer is growing. I also believe China despite its setbacks is also a growing league as interest still remains heavily as a new growing market. Concacaf MLS teams could be one day on the same level as the elite UEFA teams and far better then Conmebol South American teams as well pass Africa, Oceania too in terms of competitive level club competition.
@@diezgp I actually think so because unlike the teams in South America and Mexico they are investing big money in the clubs. MLS teams are going to eventually pass them and compete with UEFA elite teams in the near future. Mexican and South American teams are poor
Overall pretty accurate but Ibrahimovic earned $9 million a year; way more than Beckham earned year on year. Also 25 million dollars wasn't seen as a lot back then it was just a going rate for expansion at the time. The contract he signed in 2007 locked him in at the 2007 expansion price that was comparable to what Toronto had paid.
I won't lie if i was in Miami and heard that there was going to be a team in Miami amd thay it was owned by David Beckham I would have saved a special place in my heart for that club because they are going to dominate the MLS within 10 years or atleast compete with Atlanta consistently and creating a rivalry between the two teams
Think of MLS like Wal-Mart. And all of the different clubs are the different departments in the store. If for some reason one department isn't selling well, like the shoe department... Wal-Mart doesn't really worry too much about it because all of the other departments can make up for it. Like huge sells in the grocery department or electronics department. MLS and it's clubs are basically the same. lol.
@@miamisportsculture2879 Because a lot of the assets; like the stadiums, training facilities, and team stores, are credited as being controlled by the teams themselves. That's why they are able to measured in value separately. But overall they are still managed all together as a whole.
AdamNetherton weird but ok. I wish MLS had the same ownership structure as other American leagues or the Premier League in England. Personally not a fan of “single entity” but oh well 😂
@@miamisportsculture2879 Well. Single entity is the only reason the MLS exists in it's current format. Several teams would probably not exist at this point in time if they were responsible for their own financial success. The bottom 4 or 5 teams in MLS could have already folded by now if it wasn't for single entity. So yeah it's weird but it seems to be working for MLS right now. lol.
AdamNetherton but in theory shouldn’t MLS teams be responsible for their own financial success? If say, Inter Miami makes more revenue than Real Salt Lake, or LAFC makes more revenue than Minnesota, and you could prove it via financial statements, shouldn’t it be separate? I’ll give an example. In baseball, there is revenue sharing for higher teams giving money to lower teams in Major League Baseball, but each team is independently owned. But baseball does this as a way to help lower revenue clubs. Could something similar be implemented in MLS which could allow for a change in ownership structure?
Some context I didn't see mentioned, Miami was really reluctant to help with a stadium at that time because they had just been burned by the new Miami Marlins' (baseball) stadium. They poured, I believe, more than half a billion dollars of public money into that and then the owner of the team traded away all the good players for peanuts.
not quite. the marlins owner overpaid for a bunch of players to pretend to be competitive, and hired ozzie guillen who was a disaster because of comments made in support of Castro, the players they signed were latino and shipped off good white players to fit with the area and then they had worst record, so he broke apart the team and rebuilt, then they had an amazing batting lineup with 5 of the 9 batters hitting .300 and he sold it
You missed a big selling point for setting up in Florida. There is NO state taxes in Florida, on federal taxes. That alone is worth millions each year.
Great job. I thought this would be a Beckham suck job. You were kind to him but didn't, as many do, give him all of the credit for the team here and you did a great job of explaining the difference between MLS and mostly every other league in the world.
I hope the MLS keeps expanding and attempts to adopt a pro/rel system and disband the salary cap rule in the next few years. It will definitely help improve the talent in the US and make the pyramid more competitive.
The salary cap is something that’s great about MLS. It ensures that the league is competitive. European leagues are honestly so boring to watch because the same teams win every year. How is that entertaining?
MLS is in the business of making money, not making soccer big in the U.S., and the USSF who is supposed to be working on making the sport big, is happy with the money they win with MLS so they let them do what they want.
The fact of the mater is that US Soccer is very grateful that Beckham decided to invest in a football franchise in the States, and, obviously, Mr. Beckham is also very attached to the role he played on his successful career in the USA; and for all that, the MLS and its fans love the bastard. Longe Live David Beckham and all those who support soccer in the good old USA!!
Idea for next vid, 7 national teams that have been significantly better at women’s football compared to the men’s national football team and why eg. USA Australia and more.
In USA there are limitations to sport franchise ownership (it is not a free market). Since there was already Miami FC playing in the county, the county had to change some limitations to allow another "soccer" franchise in the area. Since it's Florida, that means Beckham had to pay off many politicians and wait to have it passed, but even then it was not a guarantee. Politics is the real reason it took so long.

Facts
5:05 - do you think beckham has a sponsorship with haig club?
In USA there are limitations to sport franchise ownership (it is not a free market). Since there was already Miami FC playing in the county, the county had to change some limitations to allow another "soccer" franchise in the area. Since it's Florida, that means Beckham had to pay off many politicians and wait to have it passed, but even then it was not a guarantee. Politics is the real reason it took so long.
I literally thought it was a joke when I first heard about Inter Miami. Now a few years later, I'm still not 100% convinced it isn't
Well...... they’re the worst team in mls right now with the highest salary pay in the mls
What do you think now?
0:41 Why is Beckham entering through what seems a saloon door?
you could have done it in 2 parts if you was worried about the video being too long, personally i don't mind if the vids are to long.
Can’t wait to see Inter in the concacaf champions league.
