    I know this has been brought up before but next year starts the 10 year adidas contract right? Will MLS have an adidas ball next year or is that a different deal all together?

    yes they will have a new ball, it was part of the adidas deal. following mls's history it will probably be really flamboyant and ugly. maybe orange.

    We're already in the 10 year adidas contract.
    Last year, only Columbus and KC wore adidas; only Metros, Fire, and Galaxy wear non-adidas uni's. The P-40 project now bears the company's name.

    Maybe adidas will make a ball for MLS that actually looks like a soccer ball. :rolleyes:

    Here's something in print that says Adidas will supply the new ball next year..

    http://www.coloradorapids.com/News/newsdetails.asp?ID=913

    "Beginning in 2006, adidas will hold the exclusive rights to outfit all of the League's 12 teams, as well as supplying the League's Official Match Ball."

    the next generation of the ball comes with a gunrack. plus, they'll park a car on cinderblocks in the penalty area for free.

    No it doesnt. Its by far the best looking football to come out in a long time. If you dont like the roteiro, you dont like footballs.

    I prefer the Starlancer. It's silver too, but it looks pretty cool. I have one that I kick around.
