Default MLS is Back ... Or is it? Tournament

The MLS went with the foolproof plan of returning to play in the shiny new Orlando City stadium, leveraging Disney and ESPN facilities to establish a bubble and make it happen.

The tournament is scheduled to kick-off tomorrow.

FC Dallas has already had to fully withdraw after 10 players and a coach tested COVID positive this week.

Toronto had their charter turn around twice already, opting to ride it out on the safe side of the border a while longer, and finally travelling to Orlando yesterday.

Now Nashville, already in the MLS "bubble" has 5 positive cases and 4 inconclusive tests.

Colorado previously delayed travel into the bubble after 2 positive tests.

Columbus previously had a case in the bubble as well.

Lucas Cavallini, Tossaint Ricketts, Freddy Montero, Georges Mukumbilwa and Andy Rose of the Vancouver Whitecaps have elected to stay in Canada and opt out of the tournament.

Don't forget their Fyre Festival themed menu:
