The Edmond article about the possible Oklahoma MLS franchise is interesting. I think a franchise there would get a lot of local media coverage..heck they have articles about acquiring a team daily it seems. They put the minimum season ticket # needed to get a franchise at 6,000. I would think many current MLS teams don't even have this many season tickets. Good luck Edmond, we need more teams!
I am actually going to visit some graduate schools around Halloween with one of them being Oklahoma (for Urban and Regional Planning). I have some spare time while in OKC so I will go over to that are and scout it out. Hopefully news is still good down there.
The article actually says MLS requires "around" 6,000 season tix to be sold, providing a little leeway I imagine if it's, say, more like the rest of the league, "around" 3,300 or something like that. (Just throwing 3,300 out there; I obviously don't know the numbers.)

From North Jersey: "After taking into account the fact that Bruce Arena will re-sign with the U.S. national team and Chicago Fire coach Bob Bradley will never work for Sakiewicz, here is a look at some top candidates:" What's the story here? Bad blood between Bradley and Sak? Not that it's hard to imagine the Sak pissing someone off, but when did they work together?
"Sir" GPK: Thanks. I share your enthusiasm as the American media starts paying due attention to MLS. One day, MLS will be the envy of Latin America y of some European countries as well... Step by step, little by little, we'll get to the promised land...
There is a history of bad blood between New York (Nick S) and Chicago (Bob). Nobody likes Nick. You expect Bob to?
I'm sure they met at some MLS function with Nick acting like Joe Isuzu dressed up in a purple nylon warmup pants and top with his collar turned up. Can't imagine why a serious hard work and results driven guy like Bob Bradley wouldn't get along with a guy who still uses binaca and calls all women "Sugar". Seriously, one random elevator ride with Nick was probably enough for Bob Bradley.
