Miami FC Fan Robert Scorca in Honduran News

Robert Scorca is a member of the Miami Ultras and has missed maybe one or two Miami FC games since the team started. He was also a devote Miami Fusion fan and was broken hearted when the Barcelona Miami bid for MLS fell apart. But one thing that many might not know about him is his love of the Honduran National team.

Robert was recently interviewed by the Honduran newspaper site Diario DIEZ in an article titled "Robert Scorca, apasionado por la Bicolor". Here is a little I translated:

Robert Scorca is a 53 year old American who has followed the Honduran national team since 2003, his love of Honduras is thanks to the Miami Fusion. “Alex Pineda Chacón, played for the Fusion he is my friend and is a humble person, he keeps in touch with me. Since then I started to identify with Honduras and I am always following what they do and when they come here. I consider myself a Honduran"
Robert says is best friend is "Samuel Caballero, too bad he was not called to the team this time. But I can't just name one player because they all say hello to me when they see me."

Many Honduran Soccer Fans left over 30 comments, most think Robert is a U.S. spy! Here are a few:

Carlos says: "As a Honduran we should learn, many are against the national team, this man from another country follows this team with his heart... Thanks for supporting Honduras..."

Albertini writes: "Ok, I hope you are not a spy!"

Catrachito: "Wow! How I envy him with all those cards of players, right when I was wondering how I could obtain posters of our warriors. I'd love to have a huge poster of our national team with Costly, Pavon, Suazo, Palacios, Guevara, Valladares etc. VERY WELL DONE Mr. Scorca!"

LUIS: "He is a great person I met him at many Honduras games here in Miami. he knows more about the national team then most Hondurans."

Noemi: "For those that say Robert is a spy, don't say things that are not true, you should learn from him and support our national team with your heart. Keep it up Robert!"

Note: Some Honduran fans have even started a campaign to help Robert finance his trip to watch the U.S. vs Honduras match to take place in Chicago on June 6.

If you see Robert at the next Miami FC game let him know he is famous and buy him a beer!
Hell, buy me a beer too!

Miami FC player pictures and a few links

This week I had everything planned out... I was going to write about the Watch party at Fritz and Franz this past Saturday which ended in a 0-0 tie between Miami FC and the Minnesota Thunder. Read more here. But at the last minute I didn't go.

Then I was going to write about the Open Cup draw that will see Miami FC play vs Lynch’s FC of Jacksonville at Tropical Park on Tuesday June 9, 2009 at 8pm and then I saw the Miami Ultras site already wrote about it. Read it here

Unfortunately I don't have the brilliant creative genius that Burrito has so I decided instead to bring you Miami FC player pictures courtesy of Rober t Scorca. Enjoy!

GROOVE SHADES

Ray Ban is cool, Oakley is cool. But Groove Shades are defenetly not cool. Have you ever seen this silly "shades"? Absolut ugly. And only the fact, that mr. kanye west wear them, should not let you have the idea, to buy some of this supercool plastic "shades". They let you look like a f***ing clown. Did you recognized that? Take the money, and burn it, instead buying such crap. That makes defenetly more sense.

Miami FC players need to play with Huevos! Time to bleed Blue! by Burrito

Did all you vatos see Miami FC vs los pinches Charleston Batterys on USL Live? (Click on highlighted words if you don't know the meaning) Primero the stupids thing dont work! Too many problemas with USL live... and is true Burrito steal wireless internet (and laptop) from the neighbor pero still, the connection Burrito half say buffering all the time and Burrito see only parts of game.
Then Burrito see how Miami play ok game and then Zinho put in Paulo Araujo and team fall apart! The Blues lose possessions of their balls and then las putas Batterys score on stupids dead balls goal by some guy name Spicer? Yisus! Miami FC almost have no outside shots! Someone take shots peoples!

How can Miami FC stop losing games? Chingada madre! Burrito tired off losing so mucho! Time 4 Burrito to come outs of retiro and play again! Burrito going to play as centro delantero and score like he score with all the hot mamacitas in Miami!
Time to wears the Blues shirts with pride and huevos! If Miami FC Blues players no play with huevos then we continue to "lose" like Burrito "lose" underwears one time when swimming in rivers back in Mexico!

Here is what Burrito think of team:

Goalkeeper Hannigan is doing good. Goals not his fault(see defense)

Defense: Is shaky like when Burrito see hot mamacita and want to ax her out! Burrito disappointed with Facundo Erpen. Something missing there and Burrito no no what! Pero the good thing is Beowulf Kirby! He solid and play well, pero he no play in Charleston? Porque? Burrito also like Ramirez who might be fasterer then Burrito when he hear someone yell "Police"! Only thing about Walter is his bad centers but Burrito hope he get better soon or else Burrito call Police on him! "Z" also no play this game he have minutes he play good and minutes he play bad, pero Burrito like the name "Z", reminds him of zorro!

Midfield:Burrito think time to making changes in middle! Blues need to bench Miranda and Pulido, sorry carnales pero you not doing it in middle, time to give chance to Bueso, Traynor, Goldberg, anyone por el amor de Dios! Burrito think team play good with ball on ground. Time to dominates the mid and create opportunity's up front. Leo Inacio need help. We need general in middle!
Forwards: Now we see all forwards and none can make gol! If Serna stop getting red he may be only one who play with huevos out there pero one player no make team! Marcina weak and only score one gol. Alcantara play ok pero no gol yet and not mucho from Araujo who play so little.

We know Miami FC have no money like Burrito so this all we half this year, sorry compadres! All Blues fans can do is sit back drink cerveza and wait for next season or a miracle from la Virgen de Guadalupe!
Burrito leave you with episode of "Huevos in Space"!

PLAYBOY

Hey, i´m back. With one of my favorite topics: PLAYBOY ACCESOIRES AND "FASHION"... I love the playboy. I like the girls inside, the centerfold and of curse the articles. YES, I read the articles. Belive it or not. But with the magazine there comes some bad side effects... The fashion, The jewelry... That would be not sooo bad, if only girls like kendra wilkinson, holly madison or bridget marquardt wear this stuff. They fit in this stuff. But the most girls, who wears it, are anything else then playmates. Or have you ever seen an 200 pound playmate? Me not. The other type are this kind of girls, who have a tramp-stamp above their asses... Bitches. That kind, that hang out with the hollywoodturks or the krochers (See first blog). Ok. Here is the most important thing, i have to say about this kind of clothing: Only the reason, that you wear it, dosen´t mean, that you are a playmate. It does not change you into one. I know, the truth is not always beautiful.
But there is something much worster than girls, that should not wear this stuff: Boys, who wear playboy stuff. Hey, are you a man or a pussy. It does not let you look harder, if you have a playboy bunny earrings, with unreal stones in it. Or a playboy belt buckle ore a superfancy playboy watch.
Ok, pussys see you soon

Miami FC and Farm Stores ticket deal, plus Podcast and more...

Some people might complain that sport ticket prices in this town are expensive. In Baseball they can range from $315 to $12-$16 for upper nose bleed. For American Football it's even worse $41.00 to $700.00! Not to mention parking! But when you talk about Football Soccer then you really can't complain. Miami FC tickets are the cheapest in town for any professional sport at only $12, with FREE parking! You can't beat that... or can you? Well, we just found out that Miami FC tickets are going to be even cheaper! Go to your nearest South Florida Farm Store and with the purchase of any item you can ask for tickets to Miami FC's next game against the Austin Aztex June 14, 2009 at Lockhart Stadium (6 pm) and you'll get them for only 5 bucks!

Miami FC: Another loss, Pictures, Red Card, New Times is wrong and a partridge in a pear tree...

Miami FC started off the season in surprising good form, but the reality is settling in. We had a good 2 game run but now we are in the midst of a 3 game losing streak all at home.

The Miami Herald reports some issues within the team due to Diego Serna's Red Card with 20 minutes left to go during Saturdays 2-0 loss to the Carolina Railhawks at Lockhart Stadium. In my opinion that Red didn't affect the outcome of the game. The Blues, with or without Serna were neutralized by the Railhawks and I doubt his presence would have made a difference. Serna will be out for the next game but Miami FC will have Cubans Reiner Alcantara and Pedro Faife ready for action along with Brazilian Paulo Araujo.

Speaking of Alcantara and Faife; The Miami New Times wrote a piece called "The Cuban Connection last week and made a boo-boo when they were pointing out South Florida's difficult love affair with Soccer.

Chronic anonymity is a disease that has felled eight South Florida franchises in the past three decades. The Miami Gatos went belly-up in 1972, and the Toros followed suit four years later.

Actually, after discussing this topic with Robert Scorca, the Miami Gatos changed their name to the Miami Toros and moved up to Broward... then they went belly up...

The Southern Legion was again nowhere to be seen for the second straight game. One disgruntled Miami Ultra mentioned in jest that Miami FC's new Fan group were more of a "Foreign Legion" then a Southern Legion. We hope to see the Southern Legion out there in future games!

Our good friend Victor Palkanínec has more great pictures of the Miami FC vs Carolina Railhawks up at his Miami FC2 site be sure to check it out!

I need to mention the great work by the Miami Ultras they didn't stop chanting and playing the drums giving Lockhart a great ambiance for fans. The addition of teenagers from local soccer team "The Strikers" also helped elevate the sound level.

Miami FC will now try to make some points on the road as they head out on a 3 game trip. Lets wish the Blues the best! We need to regain precious points lost at home!

The Next game at home will be on June 14, 2009 at Lockhart stadium game is set to start at 6pm. For ticket info call 305-728-2606 or go to http://www.miamifc.com/

Miami FC Blues vs The Carolina Railhawks Saturday at Lockhart Stadium

It's that time folks. Time to take the coolers out, buy some Hotdiggity dogs, some meat and bust out that old trusty grill and head out to Lockhart Stadium as South Florida's own Miami FC "Blues" gets ready to de-rail the visiting Carolina Railchickens! Yes, it's this Saturday, May 16, 2009 at 8 pm. Don't forget the Miami Ultras are organizing a Tailgate starting at 5:30 pm and not too far away in another section of the parking lot the Southern Legion will be doing the same thing, so you have alternatives!

Miami Ultras president Pieter Brown has designed the Beer logo that you see on this blog. How do you like them apples? Not bad don't you think? Don't be surprised if The Ultras start their own brewery! This might just become the official beer of Miami FC, USL, The United States Soccer Federation, FIFA and the world!

I wouldn't mind a nice cold Ultras Beer! So meet us for some fun times before we destroy the RailChickens!

According to the Miami FC site: The only player that will be missing is starting left back Walter Ramirez, who received a red card in the game against the Charleston Battery. Otherwise the team is complete and we could see the first glimpse of Cubans Reiner Alcantara and Pedro Faife. Carolina's coach Martin Rennie has some ex-MLSers like Brian Plotkin, Dan Paladini, John Cunliffe, and Gavin Gliton.

Miami FC: Cubans should be ready to play this Saturday and more...

Since Miami FC had this week off there wasn't much to write about. But here is some information as we get ready for our match against the Carolina "Chickenhawks" to take place this Saturday at Lockhart Stadium:

Our good friend Robert Scorca witnessed a practice last week at Tropical Park and mentioned seeing former Haitian national team defender Stéphane Guillaume practicing with the team. After further investigation it appears Guillaume is only practicing with the team to remain fit and will not be part of the Blues this season. Some of you might remember Stéphane as he once played for the Blues starting in 2006.

Robert Scorca also writes a good piece over at the Miami Ultras site concerning the scrimmage between Miami FC Kendall U-18 and the U.S.A. U-17. For more on that click here.

Argentine defender Facundo Erpen might be Europe bound per the Miami Herald. This will be a great loss if it materializes

Cuban Players Reinier Alcantara (#23) and Pedro Faife (#13) should be ready to make their debut this Saturday if all legal issues are finalized this Friday. I'm looking forward to see what both of these players can do. Alcantara is remembered for scoring a goal against Mexico in the Gold Cup in 2007. Here is a video of that game and goal:

Stay tuned as Miami FC players will make appearances on TV and radio this week. We will keep you informed!
