We always do well, we have been in the post season the last 8 years and our budget is one of the lowest in the MLS, we're kind of the Arsenal of the MLS
We play beautiful football, but we haven't won any silverware in 7 years or something, last year we lost the MLS cup in penalties after 15+ penalties
The year before that we lost the final of the US Open cup to the worst team in the MLS at the time in DC United.

And by sell out, do you mean the stadium? If so, then yes, we have a 22,000 capacity stadium that has sold out 25 straight times now, or something along those lines,
RSL is huge here, last year I believe we had 15k season tickets.

Yeah, it is really nice, there are investors everywhere in the world trying to get into the MLS business because of all the money they're making.

Theyre trying to start a team in Sacramento/San Francisco, Miami, Atlanta, and countless other cities, I hope they have a promotion/relegation system soon.

I really hope vegas gets the last franchise, but if they make a promotion/relegation system then the teams who paid so much money to get in would get screwed
The mls stadium in vegas is already approved I think

It would just make the competition better, this conference bullshit is handgegg style, promotion/relegation would make every game significant, and then LAFC is going to be there next season in place of Chivas.

Defoe was injured/crying half of the season, Cesar was a good pick up but unfortunately his stay was too short, and Bradley was an odd one in a sense that he started sooo good, then faded after the World Cup.

This season, I really think it will be even better. Altidore/Bradley combo, Giovinco with lots of creativity, a solid defensive pick up in Perquis, Cheyrou with loads of experience, Osorio is going to learn a lot from these players and grow, hopefully Gilberto stays, I think our fullbacks are quite decent (Morrow and Bloom). On paper, we have an amazing team. Whether they can perform or not is another question.

Altidore - Gilberto

Giovinco

Bradley ----------- Osorio

Cheyrou

Morrow - Caldwell - Perquis - Bloom

Bendik


Subs: Bono/Konopka, Hagglund, Creavalle, Jay Chapman/Warner, Lovitz/Jackson, Luke Moore/Robbie Findley/Bright Dike

And we've got a bunch of youngsters in there too!
