2021 MLS thread

Yeah, I'd love for there to be a domestic league here that was worth following. But as it is, I almost feel compelled to not follow because any sort of engagement rewards the insanely stupid ownership, but in actuality, I don't follow MLS because the league is so uninteresting due to the reasons alincoln outlined above.

A couple more thoughts on MLS and the playoff format:

- It should be 4 or 5 teams (1 bye) from each conference playing a home and away leg until a final at a neutral site. (Only because they'd never do what they should actually do and just pit 1 in the East against 1 in the West - old school World Series style. You could even have them play like a 3 game series on aggregate - one home one away one neutral)

- The fact that this is in Portland is one of the dumber things I've seen.Ā 

- The naming is confusing. MLS Cup should refer to the comp as a whole. This should be called the MLS Cup Final or MLS Final.Ā

Good.Ā  F Portland and their trash fans.

Plus, the father of one of NYC's players is on my adult league team.

My sister seems to know Sandsā€™ mom. Maybe from college or something.Ā 

I was pulling for Portland, because they arenā€™t a Middle Eastern Emirate and TripleHorn lives in Portland, has season tickets (I think), and if I hadnā€™t missed my flight 7 years ago, he would have taken me to the game that night.

IĀ thinkĀ the parents went to UT if that helps.Ā  Something like 7 of our players are alumni.Ā  Just going with the percentages.

I would have gone for Portland, except for their trash fans during the broadcast.
