“Messi-to-Miami” has become a full-blown saga, and one brilliantly developed, I must say.
The central characters are Lionel Messi, Argentine G.O.A.T. of G.O.A.T.s, the world’s greatest and most famous soccer player, and David Beckham, handsome British icon poised to close the biggest deal in all of sports and make Greater Miami the capital of the world.
This is either the slowest, most drawn-out courtship in the history of romance ... or the most brilliant scheme to sell season tickets in the history of sports. I do not believe it is the latter; that would require a concert of duplicitous gall beyond the pale.
