Jfc we better find ways to get those two paid like a million bucks more a year. If they stay they deserve that or at least a small ownership stake in the team.

Did you see my article linking Bieler to Ecuador (Barcelona SC)? That would leave 2 DP slots for our two American heroes. Give Matt $1.5m and Graham $1m or so.

saw it on twitter. but if they took both those spots how would we get Jozy to #comehome

Buy back our third DP slot. We have a ton of allocation money. (Fwiw, I have no idea how to buy back a DP slot)

Why do we have to buy it back? Did we trade it? Idr.

Pretty sure we sold it to the league or some crap. Probably got some allocation money for it. All I know is we only have two atm.

Idk guys

T-Y s_c, I'm still like 100x smarter about it now

sunny_cat · « **Reply #2482 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:32:29 PM »

I asked the brain trust on the twitters

Tobias · « **Reply #2483 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:34:29 PM »

sounds like we pretty much just have to buy it for 250k and still stay under salary cap (fixed portion of dp contract counts against, remainder doesn't)? i know jack crap about skc finances

Tobias · « **Reply #2484 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:35:18 PM »

and teams which haven't opted to buy 3rd dp slot all share buy-in of those who did?

sunny_cat · « **Reply #2485 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:36:52 PM »

over my head, Tobias. I have no idea

Tobias · « **Reply #2486 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:37:56 PM »

go kick their asses, RH

It takes a one time fee of $150,000 of allocation money per MLS rules and regs.

http://www.dynamotheory.com/2014/1/15/5312916/designated-players-explained-how-they-affect-the-salary-cap-and-what

seems straightforward if accurate?

sunny_cat · « **Reply #2489 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:48:44 PM »

Looks like you're right and Gooch is wrong.

Tobias · « **Reply #2490 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:50:19 PM »

if that article is correct, seems like it would be a slam dunk if you could use one on a stellar homegrown who would like to stay and still leave your options open

Tobias · « **Reply #2491 on:** July 17, 2014, 09:51:31 PM »

"homegrown" may be wrong term since it's got an actual meaning in mls but you know what I mean

some pretty great cameos

Get the third DP slot back and get Jozy, bump Zus and Bes to DPs sit back and win ALL of the trophies.

We can wait to get Jozy until Dom goes to England in January.

You guys, I'm really excited for the Galaxy game. LA is one of two teams I still haven't seen live at SP (the other is Chivas). LD, Keane, Zardes, oh man. Imo, one of four MLS Cup contenders right now (SKC, Seattle, LA, RSL).

anyone remember which Mexican team I picked? I think we have a game tomorrow. Can't remember the team though. Really big fan.
