MLS is currently at 22 teams, and the league plans to expand to 28 teams, with Cincinnati, Detroit, Sacramento, San Antonio, San Diego and St. Louis as the current official expansion candidates.[1] The league plans to add its 21st and 22nd teams in 2017 – Atlanta United FC and Minnesota United FC. Additionally, MLS plans to add Los Angeles FC in 2018 and a Miami team, pending a finalized stadium plan. Expanding and establishing a bigger national footprint is seen as essential to securing television rights fees needed to reach MLS's stated goal of becoming one of the top leagues in the world by 2022.

By then, nobody will be able to afford to buy more than one seat.

Too many players getting too much money, including baseball and basketball. I’ll allow a couple million over the year for wear and tear. They have endorsements. I have bills.

MLS will never make it in the US. It isn’t in our nature to like it. If football falls UFC will rise to take it’s place.

This thread was about football. Nobody cares about soccer. Its a boring communist European sport, and its boring.
