@kmedved Yeah it's very much a chicken/egg issue. I do think if you had a few franchises in MLS with say a $150m payroll (e.g. NYFC, LA, Seattle, Atlanta, Toronto) and the talent to boot, they could draw some fairly large multiple of their current revenues. But that's hard to prove. — PolitiTweet.org

My probably bad and naive soccer hot take is that soccer is now roughly as popular in the US as hockey or baseball and so there should be a breakaway league here that has much higher payrolls than MLS. https://t.co/18uoBWFqLN — PolitiTweet.org

@kmedved Your skepticism is probably called for, but I tend to think that if MLS had a more freewheeling set of bylaws, you'd nonetheless have a handful of rich owners willing to spend a LOT more, for better or worse. — PolitiTweet.org
