    What MLS Needs to Do to Survive Until 2020

    Either this guy is auditioning for The Onion or I have the "The Things Mark Jones Must Do Before Writing About MLS Again"

    1. Stop Smoking Crack
    2. Stop Smoking Crack
    3. Stop Smoking Crack
    4. Stop Smoking Crack
    5. Stop Smoking Crack
    6. Stop Smoking Crack
    7. Stop Smoking Crack
    8. Stop Smoking Crack
    9. Stop Smoking Crack
    10. Stop Smoking Crack

    This is either the funniest or saddest thing I have ever read. I know it's Bleacher Report and all that, but they really shouldn't hire the mentally infirm.

    LOL. Nice link. That was brilliant satire.

    That's a comedy site, right?

    I do wish FIFA would increase the size of the goal.
    besides that I like the game way it is.

    Shouldn't this be in General since there's not much to analyze in this ridiculous piece?

    It probably should have been in a Bill Archer "let's berate an idiot" piece.

    Obviously, the piece is arrogant and trite, but it doesn't even make sense from the viewpoint on a retarded xenophobe:

    1. Smaller field does not make for more offense; rather, it takes away space.
    2. Scoring lag after the 70th? If anything, it's the opposite.
    3. The shootout is not valued by American fans in hockey, the only one using such a system. There's no real basis for this claim.
    4. More penalty calls just furthers the idea that it's the only way to score in soccer and that fouls are way too cheap.
    5. The weekly games are not unlike what we see in the biggest league on this continent.

    Scariest part of the whole article

    That guy drives the same streets as I do. He's out there. Doing God knows what, smoking God knows what, waiting to kill me and my children.

    Pray for me.
