    Indeed. I can’t see NISA turning down a team since they’re all for ridiculous stadium situations, no limit spending, etc...

    I don't believe Rocco B. Commisso is all that naive about the USSF and/or US soccer as a rule. He has been in the USA since forever and even played college soccer. He saw the coming and going of the NASL, ASL, USL , MLS and NASL2. He is also worth $5.1 billion so and these guys always complain on how much "they lose" .

    I agreee that he is holding on to the name and may be playing some type of game with the federation.

    While I do agree the money lost is a drop in the bucket it's telling that he's saying these things now. It just seems he's lining up excuses to fold the team.

    I'm trying to figure out how D.C. United "killed" him. Briefly started with the team back in '09. Plagued by injuries and was unhealthy to start matches, therefore United released him afterwards. No one knew/forgot about him when he was with us. He's about the same level of Nana Attakora with name recognition, tbh.

    Can’t see them apply as it would hurt the lawsuit.

    Goes against what the lawsuit pertains to. Remember when he said that D3 was a non-starter for NASL to play in?

    or this?
    and this...

    Which is why Rocco should sell. He's holding hostage a club for his own petty legal business.

    Sounds like something from the Netflix documentary Behind the Curve.

    It would seem that some otherwise intelligent people on this thread refuse to admit that the earth is flat and and are intimating that I have been duped and am actually sharing a meme created by an "ideological enemy. " I assure you that I am not that easily taken in. Just watch this video proof and try to tell me he's somehow mocking the most shocking revelation of the 21st century.
