I was actually talking about developing the quality of football in the MLS from the ground-up rather than expansion, but you do bring up a good point. Any development, be it on the pitch or off, must be sustainable. I'm a bit skeptical/cautious of bringing over these marquee players too soon, it reminds me a bit of the NASL. Well, that and I'm a huge advocate of ground-up sport/league/player development.
