Today Burrito bring you vatos troubling informations concerning South Florida's favorite mascot Hotshot. Burrito half been hearings rumors that Hotshot has taken certain likings toward USL Referees and even hear some drunk fans at last game say "Hotshot is flamer". Burrito no believe these silly rumors until recent paparazzi fan pictures show up where Hotshot is caught in act of checking out USL Referees. See for yourself:
The next picture show Hotshot when he realize picture was taken. Notice look he make! He saying "Ay Dios mio! They see me looking at beautiful referees!"Now Burrito only problem is that if Hotshot half something with referees then why not use that to help Miami FC win games? Miami FC have not benefited from this situations and sometimes you need to take one for team, you know what Burrito saying?
Burrito ax a few fans at last game what they think about this situation an here is what these carnales says:
Anonymous: I find it shocking and disturbing it's a consequence brought on by the Obama administration! Damn Liberals!
Hal: I think it's cool and if it doesn't work out with the refs Hotshot should give me a call!
Maria: Que es ese Hotshot? Parece el Diablo!
Silvia: Next time I need a light I'm asking Hotshot!
Anonymous: He needs to find Jesus!
Now Burrito leave you with Horse that half similiar situation. Check this out!
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, apasionadopor 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 PinedaChacón, 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.

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 Robert Scorca. Enjoy!
The Miami Ultras along with Miami FC are organizing a watch party this saturday at Fritz & Franz Bierhaus in Coral Gables. As Burrito says "It's Time to Bleed Blue!" and I think thats the new catch phrase going around on all the Boards and websites!

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"!
