    Just when you thought you had heard it all in the world of sports something comes along and makes you go wow.

    Real Madrid one of the most famous soccer teams in the world has just done that. Today they signed a prospect from Argentina Leonel Angel Coira or Leo as he likes and wants to be called, because his idol is Messi. Now there is nothing shocking about a team signing a prospect but when then you come to find out that Leo is only 7 years old. Apparently Real Madrid made the move because rival Atletico Madrid was also making a hard push for him.

    Now I understand competition is fierce amongst teams in all sports to find the next big sports star, but come on a 7 year old. I thought USC signing a 13 yo QB was extreme and pushing it.

    That's kind of crazy. Made me think of Freddy Adu.
