    Soccer's rich get richer
    Financial Post

    And here we have Stanley Kroenke, who runs his MLS team on fumes..
    Next season MLS will start the 2011 with two brand new teams with some what rich owners..

    The problem in Colorado is less about money and more about interest. KSE doesn't care about making the Rapids better, they're a loss leader for the stadium. They could spend the same amount they spend now and have a much better football operation if they made it a priority to find good people and put them in positions to make a difference.

    You wouldn't be the only one who has thought that.

    Pencil in "New England" and "KSG" and you're about there with our local situation.

    That's obvious...the OBSESSIVE linking of any friggin' article about MLS without original comment.

    I guess he changed his name because he turned over a new leaf...and in fairness, I can tolerate FiosFan...STPassion I could not.

    I wonder what would happen if Kroenke take over Arsenal fully. Right now, he's about 12 shares short of 30%, which would trigger an automatic bid.

    Could Arsenal loan Colorado players? A few of their reserve players for example.
