Mindless 30 Posted January 10, 2013 MLS has released their 2013 Season Schedule.A few tidbits from the article:The 2013 Season begins March 2 (earliest start ever!).The season will last 35 weeks and each club will play 34 matches, 17 at home and 17 away.Each club will play the same in-conference matches as out-of-conference matches.RIVARLY WEEK: Eight of the nine matches in Week 3 of the 35-week season will pit regional rivals against one another.More than 90% of matches will fall on the weekends or holidays, with none affecting FIFA World Cup Qualifying.The MLS Cup Final will again be hosted by the club with the better record. However, the Final will either be on December 7 or 8. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mockba 1,390 Posted January 10, 2013 I really hope so, as it'll cut the distance to the Stars' nearest opponent in half. I know Peter Wilt is involved, and he's a class act. [Edit: Watched the video; cool that they used the NASL final footage, including Lucas Rodriguez's great goal. Also glad they didn't use the part with Tampa lifting the cup. *sigh*]Also, NASL is releasing the first-half schedule today.Now, if US Soccer would just announce where the home qualifier in March is going to be... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
