Alex CampbellWhy would a team who recently paid $500 million to join the league voluntarily go into a second tier? I love the idea, but billionaires arent going to line up to lose money on purpose
Cleaner way to do it: MLS 1, MLS 2 - 15 teams each, 28 game, home and away, regular season. Promotion/Relegation 5 up, 5 down, increases the value of the Leagues Cup and Open Cup. But Berg ain’t going to be that guy.
Alex CampbellThere isn’t a super clean way to do this. Best I can figure: COL, MIN, POR, SEA, VAN Galaxy, LAFC, RSL, SD, SJ ATX, DAL, HOU, KC, STL CHI, CIN, CBUS, NSH, TOR ATL, CLT, DC, MIA, ORL MTL, NE, NYCFC, NYRB, PHI Someone gets screwed no matter what and it’s probably gonna be Minnesota
Victor Montagliani was chair of the Canadian national teams committee in 2008. The Bob Birarda abuse scandal scandal in Vancouver was made worse and put more young athletes in danger. Montagliani shouldn’t be in any position of power on soccer, let alone FIFA President. www.cbc.ca/sports/socce...

I'd suggested Concacaf president Victor Montagliani could be a UEFA-backed candidate at a Fifa election. Still do. I also think both may call for an extraordinary Congress to be convened.
2019: USWNT 🇺🇸 fight for Equal Pay (and the sitting President), win the World Cup 2023: Spain WNT 🇪🇸 fight for better working conditions, win the World Cup Fighting for something bigger than yourselves galvanizes a team. What country is ready to tackle issues off the field to win the 2027 World Cup?
‘94 Brazil 🇧🇷 - Italy 🇮🇹 was played at 12:30pm at the Rose Bowl and it felt like the surface of the sun in Pasadena, so it maybe even worse…so little energy from either team. 0-0 through 120. At least Spain 🇪🇸 have tried to win this.
Phil BakiWorst WC Final ever?
Enzo beat him to red. Easy decision.
