Vegas would make more money than Sac

FWIW I think Sacramento is the perfect community for the MLS to work in, those people will be so happy to have another pro sports franchise and they will own it like they do with the Kings.

I'm not sold on Las Vegas as a pro sports city, I think it would be Miami west. There's so much to do, and frankly I have family in Vegas, I know it well, and I don't get an overwhelming sense of civic pride there. I really think they wouldn't care. Not to mention the obvious weather issues with playing an endurance sport there.

You're probably correct. I just am very anti 4 teams in Cali.

gE fixed the CWC doing a joint commission, I think we could fix MLS expansion with a 4 person panel of s_c, 'bias, MIR, and myself.

AJ DeLaGarza's newborn passed away today.

EDIT: It was yesterday.

Sunny, Can i be on your commission? i dont enjoy the MLS but i do think it might be over expanding.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #3936 on:** September 05, 2014, 05:32:43 PM »

More teams = more fun

Jonathan Bornstein is going to be teammates with Ronaldinho.

Ronaldinho signed for Queretaro (Mexico), that team with really mumped ownership that like couldn't pay its own players last season or whatever.

sporting sucks you guys

The last 4-5 games, it seems like our offensive agressiveness is gone. We used to constantly be shooting the ball. Seems like we rarely have a shot these days. Just me?

Has Vermes lost the team?

We have derailed.

sunny_cat · « **Reply #3943 on:** September 07, 2014, 09:49:28 AM »

Just looked at the standings. In terms of points per game, we are solidly 2nd in the East. Winning MLS Cup on the road will be difficult though.

scottwildcat · « **Reply #3944 on:** September 07, 2014, 09:51:04 AM »

Try to get to the conf finals and hope for the best. No trophies suck but making it to the ECF keeps us as an elite club still.

Doing no worse than Houston when they reached back to back MLS Cups in 2011 and 2012. Nothing to see here.
