If you followed that ESPN link, you would have seen that the article subtitle was "Inter Miami spiraling."

Ranked #22 of 27 at the break, the word on them is:

The $2MM fine is bad enough, but I would imagine that the $2.2MM cap hit over the next two seasons is worse.

Your nemesis, Austin FC, is near the middle of the pack, at #15.
Yeah, Miami got slammed pretty hard, and deservedly so. I am planning to go to Columbus to see them play Miami in the fall (part of a 4 game package) as much in hope that Pippa Higuain will be there as anything. Would love a chance to cheer for Pippa one more time.

Austin seems to have done a solid job of putting together an expansion team. Look forward to opportunities to root against them. If they aren't awful, that just makes it sweeter when they lose!
