cubaricho Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 7-4? f*** off yanks, you aren't allowed these scores in this sport. So is the expansion to Orlando looking good then? Ridiculous that the MLS hasn't put a team in Florida after Miami/Tampa folded. It was 2-2 in regular time. In extra time Orlando's fitness shone through. Miami always seems like a good idea until you look at how they support all their other sports franchises. Tampa, much the same without all of the glamour. We only have one "top flight" professional sports team in Orlando and it's supported well through good and bad which is a positive sign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I've never been to South Florida, I admit, but the time I spent around Orlando-Tampa for work it seemed a vibrant place for sports. Also spent some time in Tallahassee, but well, that's an entirely different sports universe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I had an excuse, it was for work! There's loads of video/film infrastructure around Orlando and Tallahassee. Mate of mine was forced to live 6 months in Miami while working for Univision, I hopefully avoided that since I still worked from Spain at the time.

cubaricho Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Why the fuck does anyone go to Florida? Why wouldn't they? On top of the reasons already mentioned we have arguably the best beaches in the world, a few natural wonders that are only here (Everglades), and some of the most interesting culture in the country due to our melting-pot of a population. There's a reason that Orlando is the #1 tourist destination in the country and its not just for the nice weather (which there is, almost entirely year-round).

Kanji Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Florida is fucking class, I was born here and lived here my whole life. The heat can get a little crazy, like the fact that its about 100 degrees in my car right now, but regardless - its awesome. Luca just trying to steam roll my state so cold!

LucaAltieri Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 First, who wants constant, unrelenting heat? Isn't that the very definition of hell? A never ending inferno. Then there's hurricanes, sink holes, snakes, George Zimmerman, voter ID laws, Gloria fucking Estefan, alligators, shark attacks, and all these cunts.... http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-40-most-insane-things-that-happened-in-florida If I wanted to visit some place warm I'd choose Syria over Florida.

Overblown stereotypes thrown about by people in this thread Florida is a super relaxed and very good state man. Sun, beaches, natural beautiful bodies of water surrounding the state and a really class diverse population. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Florida is the greatest place on earth. It has absolutely everything and I can't wait to move there.

Ameritoon Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I love Ronaldo's love of Orlando. I've only spent time there and mostly the Tampa area, hoping to go back soon. My gramps still lives there so I'm sure I'll be down eventually. It's a pretty hilarious place to read about, but I always associate it with family and Universal/Disney and that's good enough.

I was born in Tampa and lived in Orlando the past 10 years. Regarding Orlando -- The central business districr downtown and th neighborhoods surrounding are really great places to live, work and play. Although the attractions area is a bit crazy, it's massively essential to this city, county and state. We should be so lucky to have a major demand generating business/area of town that attracts an array of local and foreign tourists who add to our diverse area -- on top that the attractions business is a great source of jobs and employment for the people of Central Florida. I really love living here and enjoy it. It's weird how the ire of Ronaldo feels like a compliment. It's like being hated by Ann Coulter. Ouch. Nah I think Ronaldo's probably a chill dude in real life. Ron's an awesome guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
