The Russian Rocket Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 LoL, to me, MLS is trash. I only watch the premiership, or the champion's league. I know that, FIFA, is kind of empeaching the NA fans to get in contact, with the original fanbase, in Europe, because over there they play PES (Pro Evolution Soccer). But seriously, i never saw no one ever, take an MLS team online. I even, often take 3 stars team or such (My Favorite being Ukraine, because of Shevaaaa ) But no MLS, it's just unapealing, it blows. When Canada plays Brezil, it looks like Canada (Brezil in that footie Game) Vs Kazakhstan (Canada in the footie). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't care less before. As for MLS, I saw Hull City play Bolton in the premiership over the weekend and it was no better than MLS. It is nice to have a local team to root for where I can go the games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLS is great when you have a team to root for, usually a local one, because the local fandom takes over the quality of play. For neutrals though there just aren't enough storylines yet. It's getting better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our players suck ass, it's not even an AHL, it's barely an East Coast league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Russian Rocket Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well i meant, it's the same principle, it's what i mean, they hire players they can't afford, and actually know less about soccer than KHL knows about hockey, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
