Tyne-siding it in the land of the rising sun? Sounds crazy right? About as crazy as David Beckham to MLS sounded a mere 18 months ago so you never know. I'm not too up on my J-League rules and regulations but in terms of audience, size and age it's very similar to MLS. Perhaps Owen could be the player to give the league the shot in the arm similar to the one Becks has given MLS.
Having said that, if Owen is willing to consider the J-League perhaps an MLS side (I'm thinking Toronto) should think about giving his agent a call.

Maybe in a few years, he is only 28 years old.
Toronto would be a perfect fit for Michael if it weren't for his multiple knee surgeries.
There is no way that turf is his preferred surface.
Too true. As we are seeing with Claudio Reyna, turf is not the freid of the rich & fragile.
Owen= import Geordie.
He still owes them more than what they've gotten so far and he shouldn't be allowed to leave until they get a CL spot.
I agree with Binks. Where the heck are my Magpies going to be without him?
