MLS is like a good European Amatuer league

Profi · Mar 7, 2003

After watching alot of this MLS Spring training, I've come to the conclusion that the level of MLS is like a good European Amateur League.

These results prove it.

DC United 5, Florida Atlantic University 3
Dallas Burn 2, Nova Southeastern 1
Kansas City Wizards 3, Florida International 1

These are college teams competing very well amongst supposed top level professionals.

Not only are the college teams very much in these games, they've often been in the lead, and had spells where they've been the better team.

The MLS should be embarrased!

After thinking things through rationally, I'd equate the MLS to the following leagues.

GM Vauxhall in England
Interregionale in Italy
Regionaliga in Germany

I know there will be some clowns out there who want to argue these facts.

But try to be realistic.

There are some very bad players in the MLS.

Phil Salyer is crap.
Chad Deering is a cone
Richie Williams should now be an A league player.
Chris Albright is an abortion.
etc....etc.....

Go on let's hear the argument.........

Everything you type is so absolutely correct, no one needs to comment. Thanks for making us all aware. Go Tamworth.

I was playing a game the other day, had some good looks at goal, then got a blister. Man I hate that!

Caps had a 3-1 lead last night, had a goal waived off, and had to fight for a 4-4 tie v. Thrashers.

I hate that.

You may want to try alternating heat and ice on that knee. Get a little rest and call me in the morning.

If a flight leaves Dallas for Atlanta at 1:45 p.m. Central Time flying at 550 miles per hour, and a flight leaves Atlanta for Dallas at 2:30 p.m. Eastern Time flying at 475 miles per hour, shouldn't somebody let air traffic control know about it so they don't run into each other?

Are they Northwest flights? If so, there is no way they are leaving on time, so it should be no problem.

My sons U-12 and U-9 teams were supposed to start Spring practice next week, but we just got 8 inches of snow.

The San Diego Flash would have won the EPL.

They might even have won the treble.

Y'know, I get tempted to change it every so often, and then someone like you posts something nice about it and I realize: You know, changing my avatar would be just like changing Arsenal's crest. So I'm not gonna do it. At least not right now.

MarioKempes · Mar 7, 2003

March is the 3rd month of the year, therefore MLS must be like a good "European amateur league".

See the correlation?
