Rochester?: owner (frank duross) can't afford 10 million dollars to go into MLS.

Philly? no owner and the fact that (Temple signed a deal using Saturdays at Lincoln field)

Tulsa? NO STADIUM (there was an initiative that was passed for city development and the SSS part was scrapped out)

Anymore expansion cannidate?
Seattle? who will be the owner?

Miami? SSS yes, fan base, no

Tampa? yeah right

Houston? WOW, the owner is so interested that he is dying to have a MLS team.

Portland? no owner, no stadium

Cleveland? maybe

St. Louis? owner? no stadium? no


anyone I left of?

Why is this so wrong for a Mexican billionaire to invest in a MLS team following MLS guidelines/rules like every other owner? (according to people that know the stuff, interviews with MLS people done by Bergin and others, VERGERA will follow MLS rules).

p.s. where is Mike Segroves when you need him to lay some smackdown on people?

I agree with the 1st post completly. However in the 4th statement

" do not want a team full of foreigners. We need to establish American players, not anybody elses players. I do not want a team here in the US that might use a foreign language as its primary language. This is America, damn it."

That last sentence really displays our "American" ignorance and how we should look at ourselves form the outside-in instead.

"This is America, dam it" hah, hah. Did you ever think why this slang name for USA ever came about??? Heck this country is Untied States OF America... meaning the entire new world. Its not the United States-America.

From the outside-in many proper "Americans" from south or north of the USA might be rather confused at such a statement with such strong negativity yet possibly supporting ??? America..Club America of Mexico, America...De Cali(Colombia) or some other American Club outside the United States.

Why does everyone act like San Diego is full of Mexicans and has nothing else there. Yeah there are a lot of them here but there are also a lot of "gringos". Isn't that what the league wants anyway? I think it would accomplish more because everyone knows that latinos already love soccer (typically....)
