    I really hope that once you'll reach the 30th team with Austin, Sacramento Rep., St. Louis and Charlotte you'll open the MLS to the USL teams aswell. Promotions and relegations are the only way you have to solve the gap with european and south american football, this also avoiding the salary cap and the draft. MLS can't be like NFL or NBA. Cheers from Italy

    Still waiting to see where this goes…concerned about the opening that wants to show how soccer is better that other sports. If you know St Louis sports, especially since the Rams abandoned it, St Louis sports are unified and, at least to the public, work together. However, the opening and acknowledging the other teams makes me hopeful that MLS unifies with the Blues and the Cards. If they don't, soccer will die like all the other soccer based franchises. I am hopeful, but there is an opportunity to work together. So let's see where it goes…

    On behalf of the Cascadian family which is the Seattle Sounders, the hated Portscum Fimbers and the hated Vancouver Fiteslaps…welcome to the MLS family, St. Louis and welcome onboard!

    MLS, before going in already existing markets, you should consider to be pioneers of giving regions like Honolulu, Albuquerque, Louisville or Tucson a major sports team. Just like you guys did with Austin!

    Atleast get to 30 teams and then bring out promotion and relegation to make it more interesting and get this league to be more popular and make the players actually try and evolve!

    Franchise football is biggest bs in world football (soccer). Teams have no tradition and soul, and your local team could shut down any day because some rich ass businessman sees no profit in that team.
    I don't understand why does American have to do everything differently. Just make promotion/relegation system, it surely brings quality to football. Maybe they should make two or three tiers of professional football and below third tier amateur leagues whose teams cannot promote to third tier or so.

    Sorry but this is still stupid. How do you just simply set a team in first division without showing their worth. The USL should be standard second division and allow promotion and relegation. Stupid American teams never listen, what a ludacris move, sounds pretty dumb to not start what works in fairness to all other nations with more experience than us.

    Congrats to St. Louis, that team will definitely fill that football-sized void the Rams left in their city. Speaking of football-sized good, the city I was born and raised and still reside in today (San Diego) recently lost a football team, and we also are big about soccer, MLS please give San Diego a team please!!!

    I looked up the attendence for st louis fc, avg about 4-5k. They should have given an MLS team to the current USL city that has the best attendance. New Mexico United does about 13k. So they deserve it more and it would be a better investment.

    Plus St. Louis already has a lot of pro sports teams, I think it will be hard for soccer to compete for fans.

    Take notes New England revolution…been in the league for 60 years and still playing in a bullshit stadium..it’s time the league does something about that .sell or relocate to a city that deserves it
