    This is all part of NASL's plan to go to a 2016-2018 schedule with a 2017 break in between because of the cold weather.

    The argument about whether Pluto is a planet or not is a silly one, IMHO. Pluto was NOT relegated from being a planet, a new planet type was created to capture the multitude of objects that were being discovered in the Oort belt that were roughly Pluto's size. We currently have Terrestrial (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Planet X), Gas Giants (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune), Dwarf planets (Ceres, Pluto, Haumea, Makemake, Eris, plus a large number of others that haven't been named yet), and quite a few others that get added as new types of objects are found..

    So... Feel free to tell IAU to suck it as Pluto is a "planet" as much as Earth is, just a smaller one.:)

    Donald Trump is a New Yorker.

    Nothing we can do could ever challenge that idiocy.

    I'm guessing they would be the Washington Generals in this specific scheme.

    To their credit they were trying to set up a vertical business model in competition with MLS/SUM. The challenges and liabilities across the board were too hard. Mostly Traffic got found out. Also, MLS took two big potential markets in Minnesota and Atlanta. In the end, they needed more partners and the didn't have that. Shot for the moon and fell in the sea.

    The Latin name for Germany? That would be weird (for precisely the same reason as "Albion"). People already get worked up enough already about Real Salt Lake.

    Which is also what the future would like without the Cosmos (not the soccer team, I guess).
