Also, this is a message to any mls newfag. If you're coming in here to talk about shit you don't understand you WILL get flamed. Now before you say something idiotic like "lower leagues are saving US soccer" or "wow mls/its fans/players/anything is shit" take it up with me first or else there's gonna be big fucking problems.

I've single-handedly fostered this community into what it is today, I am a silent god, you are all here because I built this for you. All I ask is that you respect this sanctuary and kill all euroboos on sight.

I feel as though it is my rite to be somewhat of a guiding force of this community and its meme posts and general discussion, I created the TRIPFAG, I am the anonymous, at any time you don't know who you are responding to, yet somewhere I lurk slowly but continually molding this little chunk of internet soccer through my in person knowledge of going to the waiver draft, super draft, and following every person involved at a high level on mls teams.

I am but a compendium for /mls/ to use, I contain the pure secrets of everything mls, every mechanism, every letter of the fine print.

Now, before you decide to shitpost, say it to this so I can red pill you on what mls truly is.

That's enough to keep MLS away. Their model atm is to get nice shiny new soccer stadiums built with public funds before they'll award a franchise.

NASL can make do with a local high school, but needs a motivated multimillionaire around to run the team at a loss for the first few years.

Milwaukee is a historic amateur soccer hotbed for those exact reasons. Sorry that you haven't seen any of their games on ESPN or FOX, but if you actually live there, you can easily get cheap tickets, have a few beers, and share some bantz and an authentic experience with your m8s.

The Premier League of America (formerly the Great Lakes Premier League) just added Milwaukee Bavarians. They're a formerly regional (duh) now national (duh) USASA-affiliated league unofficially right under the PDL and NPSL. There's no official tiering at the amateur level because it doesn't matter. GLPL teams beat NPSL teams and vice versa last season. In fact, the Madison 56ers just joined the PLA after many years of success in the allegedly higher NPSL.

Also, Croatian Eagles SC (from Milwaukee) were in the GLPL and are still in the PLA.

USASA is the official amateur governing body of the USSF. Teams and leagues have to fulfill certain conditions set out by USASA in order to become an affiliate, which grants them that prestige as well as an opportunity to qualify for the U.S. Open Cup.

The 2 major USASA leagues are the PDL, which is affiliated with USL, and the NPSL, which is its own thing (although NASL is trying to make it its affiliate). They're both national leagues that cost a few thousand dollars per year per team to be a part of.

Below them are the various national-ish and regional leagues that anyone can make if they have a few thousand dollars and basic marketing skills.

If you want to find out about your local team, I'd suggest checking out the PDL and NPSL's websites. If that fails, google your town with 'USASA' or 'soccer team'. Hopefully they at least have a facebook page and/or twitter account, if not a website of their own.

You know how every European has a local football club within walking distance of their house and can/should support them first, even if they're in some 8th-tier league?

America is the same way, but because we have no promotion/relegation, and MLS likes to pretend they invented American soccer in 1996, most people are unaware of their local teams even if they follow MLS or foreign leagues.

There seems to be an exponential drop-off in awareness as you go down the levels, though, with most of the state-level USASA leagues focusing entirely on player development and thus players outnumbering fans at games. It's comfy but mostly irrelevant until the soccer landscape consolidates a bit.

Europe is probably the same way, really, but most people here don't even know there is a local team. They don't even have websites most of the time, and when they do, they're focused towards the players, listing just preseason tryouts and not updating things like game times or league standing.

The Brits do that, the rest of Europe only watches the EPL because they buy other teams players, so if you were a fan of said player or team you keep up with how he is doing for a while.

>MLS will never be the PL and I'm happy for that
Me too, so please play in Winter.
>>
>>64402657
I'd love a winter schedule, but theres no way MLS can compete with our other sports.

Also it snows a lot here, which we could maybe work around somehow with a split season or a winter break, but its still a big issue.
>>
>>64402657
>Me too, so please play in Winter
Fuck that it's cold outside.

I'd be in favor of flying MLS teams down in the south somewhere tho to have some friendlies or a tournament or something for winter entertainment.
>>
>>64402657
I meant American soccer fans who are eurosnobs when it comes to the sport

also that just wouldn't work because winter is when all of our sports are in full swing, not to mention the northern teams conditions would be terribly cold in the winter, I can't imagine playing in Canadian winter

oh shit omar gone, makes sense though, really tough having a defensive player on DP salary unless he's tearing it up

TAM should have kept him manageable. But then again. They have like 4 other players on DP salaries

Beckham is going to get cucked out of his ghetto stadium probably.

Omar hasn't had a solid season in a couple of years. He'll start the season well, have a few games down the stretch, but his defensive lapses cost LA points. It'd be one thing if he had a just a big salary, but as it is now, he's a waste of TAM.
LA also has a lot of promising defenders coming up the system. Meyer has been decent, Romney shut down Drogba when Montreal came to LA, and Sorto showed promise last year too.

very true, personally all I want is MLS to be like Eredivisie. Nice football, plenty of goals and passing. This season seemed like the first season where it happened. MLS is already getting a slight "ok, wtf is happening here" reputation.

I'm between Philladelphia Union (because i like philly) and Columbus Crew (because two argentinians are there and Guillermo Barros Schelotto played there)
but looking at the teams i couldn'¡t help but notice that Chicago Fire and Philladelphia have like only 13/15 players, what the fuck is that? are you crazy? are you out of your mind?
>>
>>64404244
It's still the offseason so teams are still finalizing their rosters.

If you decide to follow the Union though prepare yourself for disappointment.
>>
>>64404244
Philly is rebuilding. They just scraped like all their players so hopefully based Earnie can actually build some Dutch style team or something.

Crew are a better team than Union, but because I'm a Philly fan and biased you should probably watch Union instead.

also like what >>64404270 said, prepare for suffering.

The Union have been bad for a while, they recently brought in a Sporting Director from AZ in the Netherlands who's looking to develop young players in a similar dutch style

they offloaded a bunch of players that don't fit the system they're trying to build.

I won't lie to you, being a fan of a Philly sports team is hardmode of sports.
>>
>>64404244
Go with Columbus, they're a more complete team. The Doops are in their umpteenth year of rebuilding.
As for rosters, you'll see a bunch of additions after new year. NYCFC alone are probably gonna sign like 15 academy players when Vieria's in.
>>
>>64404244
The Crew just won the MLS meme cup, while the Union have a lot of supporters in this general. Follow your heart.
>>
>>64404270
>>64404300
are they really THAT bad? I tend to root for the underdogs and for teams that don't win shit so it wouldn't surprise me

i guess i'll go with them, then, I feel like I'm cheating if I go with a decent/good team
>>
>>64404337
the crew didnt win the meme cup you fucking idiot
>>
>>64404343
They're beyond bad and probably will be for another 3 or so years. They had to scumbag the USOC to make it to the finals. By then Karma took over.
>>
>>64404364
Nigga they survived PKs and Red Cards to get to the USOC finals, PINK COWS ""SUPPORTER"" DETECTED
>>
>>64404343
The Union FO was/is pants on head retarded. They just purged some niggers though and finally got a GM to actually build a team that makes sense.

Yeah, its hard to like them. They aren't as awful as Chicago and NYCFC though, but they just choked out of out domestic cup like 2 years in a row in the finals and haven't made the playoffs in like 5 years.

Hopefully they will get better now that it looks like they have a plan.
>>
>>64404344

Another perennial underdog is Chicago Fire. They just brought in a new Serb manager and are rebuilding similarly to the Union. May also be worth watching them if you like garbage-ass teams.

May I also point out, that the Sons of Bens are a bunch of cringe worthy assholes who made this shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y70kMNozInY

Plenty of Union fans aren't a bunch of awful hipster fucks, but we are still stuck with these guys as our "official supporters group™®". So if you roll with the Union prepare for that shit.
>>
>>64404400
that shit looks comfy as fuck
fuck it i'm going with philly

>>64404444
I'm pretty sure wanting it moved because they have a megabucks friendly the next day is the bigger dick move here
>>
>>64404440
Chelsea were going to crash no matter what.
>>64404444
So somehow Red Bulls not respecting Open Cup dates is acceptable? Union had to play a game I think right after New York's proposed date.

So no, Union did everything right in that situation and they shouldn't have to bend over backwards because Red Bulls wanted to play Chelsea.
>>

Ultimate quads confirmed, Union are a bunch of douches

If the Red Bulls were money grubbing niggers who scheduled friendlies in their stadium that whole fucking week then this would've never happend.

Instead you got your 4pm kickoff that hardly had any Red Bulls fans anyway, so some home field advantage that turned out to be.
