His contract was terminated by MLS because he didn't want to enter rehab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like what I see in the comment sections of soccer articles in the mainstream media . Soccer haters calling the MLS a Ponzi scheme . The NHL expanded a lot in the past 30 years as well so I guess they were a Ponzi scheme too. The MLS wants to also get to a certain number and into certain markets for TV reasons too. Moreover, a expansion fee of 325 millions is still a lot less then any of the top 4 pro sports leagues in the US it’s not even close.

Moreover, a expansion fee of 325 millions is still a lot less then any of the top 4 pro sports leagues in the US it’s not even close. The NHL expanded by 10 teams in the past 30 years (with an 11th on the way), most of that the 1990's and lured by the promise of "getting to a number and into certain markets for TV reasons". They've never hit big on TV in the US (relative to other sports), while players salaries at the top have stagnated (again, relative to other sports). When MLS is done this round of expansion, they'll have jumped from 10 teams in 2004 to 30 in 2022, or 20 teams over 18 years. I'm not trying to hate on MLS, but that's an alarming rate of growth. I'm not at all sure what justifies the $325 million expansion price, because the TV numbers and revenue sure as hell aren't there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Not even thinking of it in the financial sense, as a fan, its basically a part time job to follow the league now because its gotten so big. When teams come visit TFC now there is very little familiarity. And it will only get worse, especially for Western teams that you might go 3-4 years without seeing.

Watchmen Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 The Athletic is reporting that MLS is considering a move to put greater limitations on the 3rd DP spot, in an effort to encourage it to be used on U-23 players. https://theathletic.com/1520302/2020/01/08/sources-mls-considering-changes-to-dp-rule-to-encourage-young-player-signings/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoccMan Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Look at where that player lives the guy Nashville just drafted lol, his parents live in what looks like a 2 million dollar home lol, look at the other houses in that neighborhood. Until more players are coming from the poorer areas of the US and even Canada to a certain extent will both countries start producing more world class players , soccer right now especially in the US is still considered the sport of the white kid from a upper class family lol.
