FC Barcelona has received a MLS draft contract for the franchise in Miami, sent from the United States, which is being studied by the legal services of the club. It is expected that by mid-February, maybe before the 15th, made the agreement official. Franchising Barça will be effective for 2010.

No surprise, the 2 cities most pundits chose were Miami and Vancouver.

Your link is a blog written by "Uncle Ed"

I know you don't work, so in the remainder of time you have free before Jerry Springer airs next, why not dig up some credible links.

Sound from Bob is also on the evening run on NW.

Talked to folks in the MLS office and they say this story is untrue.
