    Everywhere and Nowhere.....I'm the wind, baby.
    "I think as a leader in pro sports in this country, generally they want to be part of being a leader in Major League Soccer and having a soccer-specific stadium will help them achieve that," he said of the Krafts."
    Aren't they a little late for that "leader" part?

    Thanks for the link. Interesting read. It would be a welcome change to have competition for ESPN.

    I like the sound of this. I can imagine a world with ESPN, NBC Sports Network, and Fox Sports 1. Sounds like a pretty good situation for sports fans.

    Yes they most certainly are. While I definitely do credit Don Garber's sunny, glass 3/4 full when it's only 1/3 full disposition in growing this league, this latest B.S. he is spinning sickens me. The Revs and their fans are like a soul in a hospital connected to life support. Yes, they can remain alive indefinitely but they can't go anywhere and live a limited existence.

    It's a terrible thing to realize -as a fan- that Kraft doesn't give a rat's ass, about the performance of the team, their gate receipts, their market presence, their pathetic souvenir sales, as long as his investment grows in equity. It's the value of the franchise and it's liquidation price which keeps him from pulling the plug on the life support machine. In the meantime we get lip service. Talk about Limbo.
