And this interesting article on NASL potentially crumbling.

"NASL’s Ottawa Fury will depart for the United Soccer League and that the Tampa Bay Rowdies likely will follow. With the Fort Lauderdale Strikers and Rayo OKC in financial distress—Raleigh, North Carolina’s WRAL reported Wednesday morning that Strikers’ ownership has ceased funding the club—and Minnesota United leaving for MLS, the six-year-old NASL faces a period of unprecedented adversity."

Well the bid for 1st team soccer was about the only thing that could/can save the NASL. With MLS teams backing the USL, the USL are better suited for success as the 2nd division.

Apologies, one with knowledge of the inter workings of an organization to the point of utility bill payments can be mistaken for one with authority.

My bad. Carry on, nothing to see here. LOL!
