USA can support a 40-team league. Split into two tiers: MLS Premier and MLS 2 East expansion: Milwaukee, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Tampa, Louisville West expansion: Phoenix, Las Vegas, Albuquerque, San Antonio, Calgary Honorable mentions: El Paso & Sacramento

@davidday2373 16 дней назад

That's not what we do. Our Major League sports are 30 to 32 teams. The whole MLS1 and MLS2 40-team scenario is the WORST of both worlds. Not an "open" system, and all the negatives of "Relegation". Awful idea.

@H-Vox 16 дней назад

I mostly agree but Calgary wouldn't happen because travel times are already long enough in MLS, and Milwaukee is too close to Chicago In the West I'd like to see Vegas, Phoenix, OKC, Albuquerque, and San Antonio In the East I'd like to see Indy, Detroit, NOLA, Tampa, and Louisville (though the region around Louisville would be pretty saturated already) I also think MLS could have 40 clubs without pro rel. People act like pro rel is essential but there's a snowball's chance in hell MLS would ever do it

I hear some people saying "bring promotion and relegation". The popularity and passion of the game in the us isnt at the level that europe is at; the us cant afford that. Now considering how the us has a higher population than most countries, the us can afford a abnormally higher major league team count. It still should all be major league though, because minor leagues have significantly less support when we need more support to grow the sport in america. A 36 team system is abnormally large to european standards, but the US can support this with its large population. Divide the league into 2 divisions of 18. Play everyone in your division twice. 34 games. There wouldnt even be a problem with rivalry because, like i said, the passion isnt on the same level as europe. And this would cut travel as well. Edit: i'll even add on to this by adding what i think the 6 expansion cities should be. Las Vegas, Phoenix, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, Richmond, and Buffalo.

The Midwest market is the most alluring regional market in the MLS due to geographic proximity. Chicago, Nashville, Cbus, Cincy make a great core. Detroit, Indy, and Pittsburgh are coming. Love that those clubs feel like MLS should be courting them and not the other way around. Hope they stay defiant and negotiate favorable terms for their cities and fans. MLS biggest competitive advantage is the average ticket price is sooo much less then the NFL and NBA and MLB. Fans can actually come to games.

@ruubskii 10 дней назад

Charlie’s idea of “growing the game” is championing MLS monopolizing football by piggybacking on USL’s years of market-building and stunting the rest of the league pyramid and pro/rel potential as a result.

@alfredbarten4901 16 дней назад

I could see MLS as two 20 team leagues - East and West. Each plays a balanced schedule within their league and a playoff between the leagues determiners a champion - similar to what baseball used to be with American and National leagues.

Pro/Rel could work in this country. If Forward Madison could win promotion up the leagues to the top that would be awesome! As it stands now MLS teams can’t spend and some won’t spend, and it doesn’t matter. If pro rel was a thing teams would find ways to get the best players here not post prime but in their prime. Imagine an MLS team with a mix of prime European, African, Asian and American (all of America not just USA) the MLS would be the best.

First of he's not submitting an MLS bid, he's trying to gather a group of investors together. Second, it doesn't include Indy Eleven. MLS doesn't want Eleven's ownership because he's not a billionaire.

@isaacgogna9856 16 дней назад

Even if there’s not an MLS 1 & 2 you could just have separate MLS East and West. Champions of each league play for the championship. You could also do 3 conferences, East, West, and Central with 13 teams each (maybe one has 14 if there’s 40 teams). Ideally I do like MLS 1 & 2 but I doubt owners would want to be in a second division even if it is MLS branded.

@bradenhazle4378 17 дней назад

lol promotion and relegation will never work in USA. People do not watch minor leagues or anything that isn’t the best. People watch college sports but that is different and still considered elite. It’s called D1 which is top tear college sport.

@bradenhazle4378 17 дней назад

People don't watch lower divisions because they can't go up, so there's no reason to be invested. If you ask a baseball fan if their local minor league baseball team could be promoted they would 100% follow them more. And people watch college sports because it's the most local connection and may be the highest tier* of sport their city has.

Is that why Cincinnati averaged over 20k for a D3 team? Indy gets 9k, Louisville, New Mexico and Sacramento get 10k. The USL would be huge right now if MLS hadn't poached several of their teams.

Indy has wanted an MLS team for a long long time. They would sell... Indianapolis Indians are top 5 in triple A average attendance... An MLS team would do well no question...

@@davidday2373 While others have been put out of business. However, you're point is also part of the proof of monopoly. They find competitive markets and then either buy the teams or put them out of business. Another example is how it controlled the USSF. The national federation should have demoted them if they chose not to fully participate in the Open Cup. Because of MLS's power, they forced the USSF into submission.
