Sporting KC Thread!! (Featuring All of MLS and sometimes Mexican Leagues too)

[scottwildcat]

If OCSC wins, the attendance numbers will stay. You think SKC would be selling out 38 straight games if we weren't winners?

No, but I think person for person KC is one of if not the best sports towns in the country and will support subpar teams 20x what Orlando would, and the same goes for all the cities I mentioned. Orlando will flop harder than any of the expansion cities and almost all of the current MLS cities if the team sucks and that includes Miami.

Guess we'll see.

yeah, i agree with that.  they're winning in the usl though (like 1-2nd place every year).  at best, i'd rather them have someone else's franchise than be an addition though

With the 14 sw named, to get up to 24, you'd have to find 10 cities better than Orlando which has already been a proven (admittedly short term) success. I could probably name more than ten cities that want MLS, but that doesn't mean they'll be better situations.

Why didn't you include them in the first place if you included NYCFC? Fair enough though.

because NYCFC (prefaced without RBNY) would be playing games in New York City without anyone in the entire northeast as a direct competitor in the biggest market in America.

[MakeItRain]

If OCFC is successful in the stands they will the buck the trend of every other professional sports franchise in the state of Florida

i hate chicago more than chivas fwiw

not even gE'ing here.  they are an awful franchise

The ownership in Chicago is pretty terrible, but they're not close to as bad as Chivas. DC United is seriously hurting too.

Can't all be as studly as SKC ownership.

[scottwildcat]

The away kit is similar to the Fire one.

Except Portland's doesn't look like dogshit.

My second favorite team. Third is Colorado/New England (just because of the young talent).

This has been on my list of possible away games. Also considering it. I think Chicago is going to be most likely. The Sunday after finals week.

That sucks. I'll see if I can make Colorado happen. Money may be an issue.

Idk. I would imagine so.

[AbeFroman]

I think so. I think they were saying ~$100 for a bus ticket (includes kegs and lunch)
