    Listen they are going to force him to sell . . . I think the league has reached that point. Now, whether the let the currently started search for a buyer take its course or they find him a buyer it is going to happen before next season.

    Honest question here. If this team is sold and rebranded, but stays in LA, would you continue to support it?

    Yes. No doubt.
    Of course, I have to look at ownership, identity, brand, and stdium prospects more closely. I won't get fooled again.

    And Chelis is fired. Let the MLS train wreck continue!

    Wonder why he was fired though, far too early in the season due to form (i think)

    The whole thing smells of a quick sell by Vergara. I think his plan was to cash in on the last few expansion checks (Man City, Beckham, Orlando) hopefully this year and bring in Chelis to somehow make the team a winner. Its much easier to sell when your team is competing for a title then when they are in the bottom of the league. If somehow Chelis made CUSA into the Impact this year, and the winning was able to bring in fans, I think that would have seriously improved his ability to find someone to purchase the team at his asking price. But as the team becomes more of a train wreck, the only valuable thing Vergara has at this point is the franchise rights to LA. Because he has no players/stadium of value, the club has nothing else going for it. A winning team would have helped, but now that they don't have that I guess Vergara wants to cut his losses and not even pay Chelis. Instead just bring in someone who is already on the payroll.

    Doesn't Chelis get paid the remainder of his contract regardless?

    Depends on the contract, in this case I HIGHLY doubt it. There is no way CUSA is going to hand out a guaranteed contract and then fire a guy in May and keep him on the payroll until November.

    We're still waiting

    Tell me that you're still in 4th grade and not really this ignorant. Lie if you have to.

    PS: We don't call ourselves 'native Americans'. It makes you look stupid to us when you do that.

    Intricacies such as 'We were here first'?

    You're off by a hundred years.

    First thing I noticed when I looked at this picture was, "One of these things is not like the other, one of these things does not belong."

    Well, there is that, and there's the fact that it's shopped all together from like, 10 different pictures.

    But it suited my purpose
