Very excited about the Lopez signing, but one thing that ticks me off is how the MLS treats it's teams differently. Just looked at the main page of MLSNet and there is no mention of Lopez becoming the first DP for Kansas City. If this were Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, ect. this would be a major story. If I remember right every other team that has a DP, when they signed it was on the main page (Gallardo being the most recent example). When will people start to realize that this franchise has turned things around and is moving in a positive direction.
You're right that this is worthy of mlsnet.com's front page, though I don't think that it's conspiracy as much as complacency. It'd take about 5 seconds to copy what KC's staff had already put together and syndicate it on the front page of MLSnet.
