Well, we’ve reached the time of year when televised sports options become more scarce. I just watched a Serie A and watched a Juventus player give his entire kit away after the match and walk off the field in his bikini underwear. Not used to see that.
now I’ve turned on an MLS match between Portland and LA. I’ve always known Portland has pretty good atmosphere for their matches, but it struck me that I don’t see one American on the field for them. Is this common in MLS? Other domestic leagues have rules that teams have to carry a certain number of players from the host country. Do they have something similar in MLS? It looks like Portland has 3-4 Americans on their bench. But why should I watch a US based league where all the players are inferior B and C teamers from other countries?
