crashcarson15 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 ...and Jacksonville likely needs the Jaguars to leave.Whatever the hell that means, troll. Meaningless, worthless comment. TrollNo, it's not a trolling comment. Think about it.In order to get the fan support and the corporate support an MLS venture in JAX would need, it's likely that the Jaguars would need to have departed. Not too many are going to pledge monetary support to both franchises and if there isn't a professional sports team in JAX, it would make an MLS club that much more likely.I don't want to see the Jaguars leave. I've said that multiple times on this board and defended Jacksonville. But just simply saying that the NFL franchise leaving would benefit a prospective MLS franchise isn't trolling.

Gothamite Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Well, this seems to be sequeing into Domestic Soccer 2013, so maybe here's the place to report that the Cosmos are indeed moving ahead, taking season ticket deposits starting tomorrow and signing the organization's first player in decades (mercenary squad for friendly aside), Long Island native and former Red Bull Carlos Mendez.

Jer15 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 This move upsets me:TFC trades F- Ryan Johnson and GK- Milos Kosic to Portland for GK- Joe Bendik, 3rd overall pick in the 2013 superdraft and allocation money.Looks like TFC has also released backup keeper Freddy Hall.That leaves about $650,000 in cap room for TFC and the rumor floating around is that there is a European that the club is trying to sign, not sure who though. Either way I like Ryan Johnson a lot, great MLS player. Not happy to see him go.

Billy B Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I heard Mix Didkerud to the Timbers todayThat would be awesome if they got him. I'd much rather see our young players in the MLS than somewhere like Norway. Let him play a few years and develop a little bit before going to a higher quality league in Europe.

Jer15 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 The re-entry draft is complete.TFC took Danny Califf, whom they had acquired in a trade last year with Philly. The trade ended up being cancelled as Califf said he would not report to Toronto. Here's hoping that this time around he will show up.Speaking of Philly, they took Connor Casey which I think was the best pick up in this draft.

TBGKon Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Jacksonville can have either the Orlando City (USL) or Tampa Bay (NASL) franchise when either Orlando or Tampa Bay get MLS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Jacksonville can have either the Orlando City (USL) or Tampa Bay (NASL) franchise when either Orlando or Tampa Bay get MLS.We'll see. I know MLS once said that they'd like to expand beyond the FIFA guidelines of 20 teams, but they've kind of backed off that recently. And there aren't many clubs worthy of relocation discussion.

Corvus Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 So, TFC are apparently reaching for the crown of TO sports incompetence.I mean really, you couldn't hire a guy who a) has coaching experience and credentials and was not under contract to continue playing in the EPL.Are they going to trade someone for a bus next?

NJTank Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I think Toronto FC should be relegated to a childrens league maybe they can win a few games that way www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
