MLS games are fun. They really don't need to be expanding.
Yeah I wonder if the league is watering itself down by adding more teams. The quality of play there still seems to be pretty far behind Europe, and I can't imagine adding more teams is going to help that. Deadspin seemed to think a lot of the motivation for expanding is that they're not flush in cash and need some big fat expansion fees to keep its growth going.
I'm pretty pumped for this, though. We've had a lot of soccer friendlies being played in Nashville, and they've always drawn really well. I got to see a PSG soccer game when I was traveling a few weeks ago, and the atmosphere for that was amazing.
Just hopefully MLS will still be on the upswing by time Nashville starts its team instead of it turning into a boondoggle for the city because the league isn't being managed all that greatly.
