The difference is - in the CCL a flight from say, New York to Honduras is 2,000 miles one way (which is shorter than a flight to LA, btw). Now,...
120 minutes, plus the possibility of penalty kicks is simply a fact of life in resolving ties. But the bigger point – in the case of going to...
The best-of-3 only needs only to be utilized in one round - the conference semi-finals. All three of those games could be as follows:...
Um, MLS playoffs DO NOT use the same "playoff system" as the world cup. If they did, that would be a good thing. But they don't.... As for...
This. Minus the bit about "no significant changes to playoffs" bit. The two-legged system has to go. Why have a season to decide seeding, when...
It’s always been my contention that the slow growth on the professional domestic side of the sport has been, in part, due to television...
I'm fine with the top remaining seed having the final at their home stadium. A neutral venue would also be fine with me...even preferable, but...
Scheduling aside (which a change would be welcome..) I think the following are just fine: MLS - season (and post-season) structure are just...
Great deal. Money for development is sorely needed. On the point of the uniforms...I have to ask the naysayers: Is there a conspiracy against...
That's a fair statement. But, I have to ask (because I really don't know) how are these games marketed locally? Something tells me regular season...
I don't have any data, but with your basic premise, I agree. The average joe in the United States, when they flip on a game, and see a nearly...
Wow, your powers of perception are incredible. I'm "clearly" someone that is new to the game? Really? I'll whip my soccer dick out for you:...
Okay, this makes, what, the third thread where people are whining about these games. I posted the following response in another thread. Maybe you...
First off, I agree with several of the last posters - It is only one matchday. RSL played aggressively, and deserved a win. Didn't work out that...
Yes, you are right. But it is a "part of the game" generally employed by weak and inferior teams as their only hope of getting a "result". It is...
And this is different from the expansion of the UEFA Champions League, how? When did MLS fans become such whiners? Jeebus. Bad calls happen in...
My two cents The Refs: Yes, there was some questionable calls in both games. So, what? It happens. For those who want to abandon the...
Well, why? You already go 45 minutes, plus 2,3,4,5 minutes of stoppage time (each half). I'm going to guess that stopping the clock for these...
Yes, and Maybe. Stopping the game with, say, a horn at 90 minutes (45 at the half) would cause more problems than it's worth. ie, "did he get the...
Yes. And Yes. It's becoming a very big problem. And I can't understand why FIFA keeps turning the other cheek to this crap. That kind of...
Just move to San Diego already, and kill this failed experiment once and for all. It was a bad idea from the beginning. It's a bad idea now.
Re: CCL Group Stage :: Crew vs. Municipal (GUA) 8/18 That wasn't the most exciting game, or well played...but it's 3 points. To be truthful,...
Um...what happened to the marquee match "sell out"? I see what is probably thousands of empty seats. Is this another example of MLS inflating...
Nice work! Problem is, the lower bowl - alone - in the Silverdome is 42,000 seats. But, cool photoshop, nonetheless.
Re: Silverdome to be renovated into 30,000 seat SSS So, based on that statement, you think the proposed renovations would be in the...
