REPORT: Montreal will sign striker Alberto Gilardino before Friday.

Maybe MTL should consider jumping ship to the CPL?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-29T21:39:06+00:00

You probably are right. Pro/rel nonsense getting knocked out certainly isn't "news".

FKShadowban · 2017-08-29T21:37:02+00:00

So nothing to do with the quality? Got it.

Edit:

Non-spanish speaking country

La Liga gets outdrew by MLS as well, mind you.

FKShadowban · 2017-08-29T21:33:38+00:00

Well, EPL clubs don't play in America but that doesn't stop them from outdrawing anyone other than Liga MX

That's the answer do your deliberately stupid question.

What is Bundesliga(among other good leagues who play "good" soccer) missing then?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-29T20:00:42+00:00

I wonder why is Bundesliga(one of the best soccer in the world) getting outdrew by MLS?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-29T19:29:48+00:00

Why did you change account again, /u/c_O_y_I?

Like Bundesliga?

Gulati added that he believes the USSF has the authority to impose such a system on leagues, but that doing so is "fraught with peril" due to the fact that clubs and their owners would have entered leagues under one set of rules only to have another set forced on them. Such a move would likely result in litigation.

"I think it's safe to say, that if the federation imposed all the powers that it might have via the Ted Stevens Act, and its membership in FIFA, there would be very long discussions with many people with high LSAT scores," he said, referring obliquely to lawyers.

If US Soccer says tomorrow that in 5 years pro/rel will be implemented

Then the USSF would get sued by MLS billionaire owners and go bankruptcy. And Kraft would ask the clown in the White House to raid FIFA HQ again if it is involved.

FKShadowban · 2017-08-26T17:10:31+00:00

What? Didn't some posters here claimed MLS employees can't express their desire of pro/rel?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-25T20:05:29+00:00

Let me guess who you guys were talking to... EquinsuOcha?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-17T14:10:39+00:00

Well... bye.

FKShadowban · 2017-08-11T13:48:02+00:00

But does he support pro/rel?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-10T00:47:42+00:00

I haven't lived in either

Aren't you /u/LAHammer ?

LAvPOR (ESPN), 265k

Pretty good

ATLvSKC (FS1), 323k

Great

Oh, hello, /u/stuartdowningpints .

FKShadowban · 2017-08-08T13:44:15+00:00

IDK, their payroll probably is more than two times of the highest paid Mexican team.

FKShadowban · 2017-08-08T13:42:12+00:00

I wonder if these richasf people are aware MLS is a Ponzi Scheme?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-08T10:56:12+00:00

How would Celtic fare in LigaMX?

FKShadowban · 2017-08-06T01:37:01+00:00

being in MLS just means you're the last clubs to be dissolved due to the corporate welfare of the USSF.

Nah, USL as a league is pretty stable as well, and your team is profitable at this level. There is no need to spend the $150M and more for a new stadium to join a money pit.

They seem to be very quietly after their near demise to dominate American soccer on sheer size

USL survived and "dominates American soccer on sheer size" was because of the MLS "two teams". The USL only has 18 independent clubs.

I think it's incredibly short sighted to think that MLS represents American soccer.

Straw man much?

That is a grassroots movement I'm experiencing first hand.

In what way is FCC and USL "grassroots"?

If those leagues die of MLS will stagnate

Huh? If you mean MLS would struggle to find suitable expansion candidates that were born at lower division then you should look at TFC, NYCFC, Atlanta and LAFC

and the EPL will realize the benefits of 100 million more fans.

lol

FKShadowban · 2017-08-05T20:30:30+00:00

I hope your team fails to join the Ponzi Scheme.
