    Re: World Soccer XXV - the run up to the World Cup

    Atlanta expected to be the next MLS franchise to be announced. Some people are having fun with it.

    Oh, that, no doubt. It really was embarrassing to revisit the lies that were told about what caused all of that.

    At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

    Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

      The most powerful interview (which is hard to say because they were all powerful), I thought, was with one of the Constables. He sits there describing trying to help people, seeing the dead and dying, and giving his statement describing the issues and signs it. Then he finds out years later they had altered his statement without his knowledge. Then he says "I may be a washed up Bobby but last time I checked that's a crime."

          Well with Atlanta being #23 in MLS it means we're only one team away from the MLS Norris Division! (Seattle, Vancouver, Portland, San Jose, LA, whatever Chivas USA ends up as) So excited!

            Can we raise the money for a 24th team via Kickstarter to make this happen?

                Where would we like to put this club?

                Also, does this mean we get a shot at the promotion/regulation system?

                  That'd be a pretty poor way to court a franchise fee for the 24th team, wouldn't it?

                  For that matter, it'd be good reason to upset everyone. The franchise model for a league doesn't lend itself towards pro/rel.

                    Understood. It wouldn't be right away, but I'd love to see it. However, I don't think it happens.

                          I would love one in Minneapolis and it makes more sense to me than most of the other suggested.

                            Well there is talk of a team in Minnesota as the Twins owner is partnering up with the owners of the NASL team there.

                              I would love a team in Minnesota. I try to follow the Thunder/Stars/United and went to a couple of games in the Thunder era, but it's hard to really get into them from Duluth. I would instantly be a big fan of a MLS team. I know the Wilfs said they were very interested in bringing an MLS team to the new Vikings stadium.
