Are we going to talk about Busio at all?

i brought it up. not much to really go crazy about though. he'll be in the academy this year, and probably next year, maybe SPR, we may see him as an actual possible contributor on the senior team in 2019. While him making his debut this year or next as a late sub just to say we played a 15/16 year old could happen, there will be nothing tangible from this kid for probably at least 2 more years.

His highlight film is as amazing as you'd expect from a 15 year old signed to a professional contract.

That is great film. Honestly I wish we would create a real residency program and offer homegrown contracts to anyone in our footprint who has a shot at playing professionally or even going D1 and start pumping tons of time and money into that program. It's that type of stuff all American clubs need to do to move the senior national team forward, and what Sporting will need to do when they eventually abolish the salary cap 5-10-15 years down the road.

Also if we did that with Josh Sargent we would be looking at a nice transfer fee when he ends up in Germany. (Which is what I think we are doing right now with Gia)

NASL lost DII status. That league will be folding soon. Any stable franchise will join USL. USL and USL2 will soon be the lone DII and DIII leagues.

What will happen first: NYCFC get a SSS, NE Revs get a SSS, Beckham's Miami franchise play a game, or an MLS franchise wins CCL?

1. CCL, it will happen next spring
2. Miami
3. Revs
4. NYCFC will eventually get a stadium in Staten Island or Long Island

That was very assy. Lobato has shown absolutely nothing, not even a flash. I trust we've seen the last of him as a starter.

Toronto is so loaded, I think they have the ability to finish off what Montreal nearly pulled off two years ago.

i really do hope Toronto does do it, and with the new format i think any MLS team has a better chance, but i am not a believer.
