Thanks for the new thread mate

We'll need to update the pic >Soon

>Soon

Today.

Meant to put scores in the first reply but I can't find any of today's preseason results anywhere. Anyone know how they did?

no soon, their first game is done.

>Soon

4-0

>soon

hope someone streams the lags even with their cell, too late to head there now not that I would have.

They beat Chattanooga today, 4-0. Well done. You're here. Shut up.

Don't be like this Sacramento. Show some self respect.

It's now though, no?
I knew it would never die.

>in the future

>12 expansion teams
>add all 12 to MLS2

soonposting has killed /mls/ general

I'm out faggots

Posting this again

Cities with old NASL teams that don't have a current pro soccer team (plus number of teams + seasons played)

Baltimore (2 teams, 4 seasons)
Calgary (1 team, 1 season)
Cleveland (1 team, 1 season)
Detroit (2 teams, 5 seasons)
Hartford (1 team [with 1 rebrand], 3 seasons)
Honolulu (1 team, 1 season)
Las Vegas (1 team, 1 season)
Memphis (1 team, 3 seasons)
San Diego (2 teams [with 1 rebrand], 10 seasons)

The Browns should start The Browns FC desu

AFC Cleveland won the NPSL title last year

Today is literally the day that >soon became >now

It's over, lads. It's finally over.

Jim Brown was a famous NFL player for their local team, that wouldn't carry over to soccer.

THEMES TO CHOOSE FROM:
>Cleveland Indians
(MLB, Native American imagery, the term 'Indian' is now considered racist and outdated so that won't do).
>Cleveland Cavaliers
(NBA, some kind of knight/swashbuckler imagery? this could work).
>Cleveland Gladiators
(Arena Football. Mite b cool)
>Cleveland Rockers
(WNBA, defunct. Hey, there's the rock n' roll hall of fame, why not recycle?)

I refuse to believe there's not an user on here who will pick up >Soonposting for LAFC

We already know there's an user here relatively close to Sac

>soon posting a team that already existed

>soon? pls?

No because Cali posters here aren't so fucking insecure as to repost the same shit every day trying to get attention.

I know that sounded sarcastic but it's the deep south that's insecure about their entire existence.

At least support your semi-pro team first m8

That's easy for you to say, maplefriend
You've never had to sit outside in Louisiana in July

Octobers in Toronto aren't fun either.

But I see your point, sorry to judge.

Ah, so Beckham's team or Tampa Bay Rowdies then?

Just so we're clear, in 40 Years the MLS will a top 5 league in the world and America will a top ten soccer country. Euros will get butthurt about the playoffs actually being meaningful and the salary cap working

Canada will punch above its weight and constantly put together solid surprising teams in international tournaments.

BOOK IT

This will be true with investment and infrastructure, but for that the US economy has to be going well. And the last time we had a GOP President it tanked like a motherfucker. Just saying.

In before >muh congress.

As much as it pains me to say it, the original soon poster was a fellow Califag.

>fundies pay for jersey ads and youth soccer programs
>big ol' Christian cross on our shirts
>Proselytizing Mormon boys knock door to door with bibles and soccer balls
>even more liberals playing+ conservatives
>piss off the rest of the world with crosses on our shirts
>become #1

It'll all come together

I'm not really sure what's going on in this post, but Mormons will never play soccer because it's too close to dancing.

>soon?

>implying
America's evangelicals believe soccer teaches children inherently unamerican values

IIRC, there was a USL team who got shut down because Mitt Romney wanted to put his name on the jerseys as a political advertisement

Plus, pretty sure you can't put any religious symbols in a FIFA-sanctioned league.

We tell them soccer is hard work and NOT easy. Mormons think hard work is holy right?
Okay, we threaten to take away their tax free status, they take social programs in the form of soccer donations to be tax exempt

>kids with mullets and wife beaters in Mississippi will become the center of American soccer
SOON

>pretty sure you can't put any religious symbols in a FIFA-sanctioned league.
Oh that's cool, they will be highly stylized 'pluses'. Nope, no religious symbols here.

I like this idea now

>Soon

i need an earthquake to hit san jose. imagine the OC

An earthquake would make me (San Jose fag) stronger.

>olympique new orleans
Sorry NOLAbro, to get into MLS you're gonna have to be the New Orleans Hurricane.

Hurricanes La Nouvelle-Orléans. Perfect

>MLS

Fuck, I'd settle for the NASL at this point
I just wanna matter

in the end none of it matters everything will die and be gone at some point we're just finding the little things to tide us over in our brief existence


what you should hope is that in 1000 years they have a cloud archive that chronicles the team you supported


>we'll all just be distant forgotten memories

>Earthquake hits
>Avaya Stadium is destroyed

the ironing would be delectable

>play in Stanford until we get a new, bigger stadium

Checkmate kiddo

>worlds longest outdoor bar converted to worlds shortest outdoor bridge

It will all end July 30th
>Soon

this could actually be a good business move if they offered stanford students discounted tickets or made one game free for them or w/e

Can't wait for California to break off the mainland

San Diego's bet would be undebatably screwed

And the memes, of course

>stanford kiddos
>needing free tickets

i don't recall saying they needed them, m8

Happening?

>La MLS

I still don't know why LAFC needs to be a thing
Look how many perfectly good markets want an MLS team
Is anyone in LA really begging for a second team?

will hate nu-chivas, but hate flyovers more.
cry more

youtube.com/watch?v=hMr3KtYUCcI

At least Chivas tried to differentiate themselves in some way
Horribly misguided, but the sentiment was good
LAFC is just...the other LA team.

>perfectly good markets want an MLS team
Even if LAFC got a fifth of LA's market, that's still larger than most the remaining markets in the country.

Yeah except there's no good reason those folks aren't rooting for Galaxy right now.
No one is suddenly going to become an MLS fan just because of LAFC.

A third New York team would have a somewhat equal market to a second LA team.

>Los Angeles Football Club
>not Los Angeles Aztecs
Johan Cruyff and George Best must be rolling in their grave

you underestimate the number of people in the United States dont support their local team, a new LA team wearing black and gold that has made it known will bring in most likely some of the biggest signings in MLS history will go a long way into drawing in first time MLS watchers and those that are indifferent to a Galaxy team in Carson

>No one is suddenly going to become an MLS fan just because of LAFC.
Where you around when NYCFC came into the league? Cause there were plenty of assholes who could've been rooting the the Red Bulls for years, but hadn't. You'd be surprised how easy it his to hook newfags with shiny new things.

MLS fans are the reason people don't like their local team. the euroboo LARPing bullshit is retarded and makes going to a game unpleasant.

you literally don't have to sit with them, is it that hard to ignore them and watch the game if it displeases you so much?

I've never sang or cosplayed at my local teams games and its never bothered me other people chose to

feel my fucking pain

its funny too bc nyc and la are also full of lame transplants who will trash jersey or carson even tho they moved to the city 3 years ago

Your 2017 Atlanta United everyone!

Bros, how do we make the yurocuck players stop playing so good? Mls is supposed to be the only league that puts players on the national team.

I just cant. I just fucking cant see yuroboos on my national team.

Do you really get trigger at the sight of people standing up and yelling?

>trigger at the sight of people standing up and yelling
No
>trigger at the sight of tools standing up and yelling ebin footy chants like honest to goodness lads
Yes

You could always sit in any section that isn't the designated supporter group section

>we americans are too cool for chants!!

then sit far away from them nigga

fuck off, Lisa

A little bit different of a scenario
Borough loyalty is strong in New York
Plus >energy drinks

Is there any city in the USA, where they are only good in MLS (major league soccer) soccer and where all other sports are crap and total disappointment

Not likely. There are lots of sports that have a presence in most major cities/metro areas

I like how you're changing up your routine, Fer.

For a lot of people, Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, etc might as well be different cities
Also
MUH YANKEE STADIUM

...

Clearly don't have much experience with LA and its transplants. Carson may as well be a Borough of New York to many people out here. Not to mention the special class of faggots that refuse to do things outside of their immediate neighborhood.

>meme keeper
>meme striker
>meme coach
How is San Jose not getting better results?

Fuck off fernando

Why do American MLSers have to try so hard?

I mean look at this fucking stadium

>tfw btr doesn't like the valentine's day card you send her on facebook

Your flag has a leaf on it.

I hope somebody got fired for that nonsense.

GENTLEMEN

I'm sorry, what's wrong with this?

>Jim Brown was a famous NFL player for their local team, that wouldn't carry over to soccer.
Are you implying the Browns are named after Jim Brown...?

>implying a fact

Yes, later I'm going to >imply that water is wet.

Google Paul Brown, friendo.

Why? Was he one of the all-time soccer greats?

Blog post

Nigger is this Pete's?

>Winless Stadium

is there a bigger JUST team than Wanderers this season?

Do we even have the NASL sched yet or are we still waiting?

no

Guaranteed that the actual stadium wouldn't look anything like this
Just a pretty CGI mock-up to attract eyeballs
