Mike Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Man City and the Yankees Hate levels for that team are going to be off the charts. I didn't get Yankees hate until this moment right here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Haven't the Yankees been broadcasting Arsenal matches on their YES network? They get around. Yeah YES is a bit of a whore. Yanks, Nets and Arsenal.

Toon Hoser Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Figure most (all?) casual Yankee fans are also Man U fans as part of the great frontrunners fraternity. This Man City hookup might throw some people into a state of confusion. On second thought, probably not. They'll just hear "Manchester" and assume it's Man U. Why sweat the details? CHAMPIONS BABY!

Part of becoming a big league is fucking over the people that care in favor of the people with the most money. Then why are the Bills still around? I understand the politics behind it. NY/NJ has difficulty supporting one MLS team as it is, whereas Orlando already has the infrastructure and support in place. I'd be fine if they both ascended, taking us up to 21. But I have a feeling Orlando will be put on the back-burner, especially if they opt to continue with the Cosmos as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 This is so ridiculous. The people at the top of Orlando City are taking this too well. Total screw job here. They just waltz in, throw the money down, and create a franchise in 24 hours. Unbelievable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 They are overlooking the fact that this will essentially be a Man City reserve squad. Having a single owner with two teams, each in a separate league, is a disaster waiting to happen. Garber has wanted this since he took over MLS, but like the article says, let's hope what they wanted is right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Becomes less and less likely with each expansion team. The price is only going up. Bearing in mind David is going to get his paws in the mix soon too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillClinton Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Will the league want to move past twenty teams though? Either way they will probably stick at this amount for awhile. Terrible way to waste the last spot. The league had been making all the right decisions lately up until this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible way to waste the last spot. The league had been making all the right decisions lately up until this. I'm not sure tbh. Vancouver, Montreal, and Portland all hit the ground running and assimilated rather fast. Makes sense to keep the league at an even 20 for now I suppose.

Ameritoon Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 There was a quote from Garber saying there's still a lot of "activity" going on in terms of Orlando, Miami, Atlanta and a few others, but they want to make sure NYCFC is prepared and ready to launch in 2015. Could mean a few things, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
