One city that keeps impressing me is Nashville.
Great crowds for USMNT and the ICC games.
I think it would do well.

Expansion Rumors Megathread
- Thread starter MagnusPax
- Start date
Don Garber sits down with Extra Time Radio and answers fans questions. Interesting that MLS is worried about the ICC and international clubs setting up offices in the states.
Also sounds like MLS will renew with Adidas.

Does MLS want that guy to have a big ownership stake in the league?
Does Silva want to buy into a team that will compete directly with his?

My assumption would be that Silva would fold Miami FC, and maybe the NASL as a result.
Yeah, I assume Miami FC basically just becomes Beckham's club.
Rumors that Sacramento's top brass are in Chicago for the ASG. It will be interesting to see who else is there. If it's just a couple groups, that would likely be indicative of what's going to happen next. If reps for all or nearly all 12 are there, which is what I would expect/assume, then nothing can really be gained from that information.
I believe Tampa Bay is also there. I would assume that every expansion team is there in some capacity just to rub shoulders with MLS executives given they are holding a board meeting on Wednesday.
I think Sactown is a lock at this point. They have EVERYTHING MLS is looking for now.
So the MLS owners meeting happened this morning and no official announcement about Miami getting approval at 3:30 Eastern time.
Sounds about right.

If they make an official announcement, wouldn't it be more likely to be during the All-Star Game? Or even tomorrow, so it stands on its own as a news event?
There were rumors that Miami FC was planning an announcement for tomorrow, there's about a 1% chance that's it.
Satellite link at between both games announcing Miami FC to be absorbed into MLS, terms TBD.
Sorry, whatever you're trying to say here isn't registering in my brain. Typo somewhere?
Joint announcement via satellite link at both games announcing Miami FC to be absorbed into MLS, terms to be determined (or just not announced).
It takes time for accounts to clear in Panama.

Man, what the hell does this even mean. 3+ years of little to no progress and then now this.
This is going to be a disaster either way.

This sounds like much less of a disaster.
There are several direct quotes from The Don in this article that seem to point from an official swearing in of Miami to the MLS within the next 30-90 days.

Yep. Ridiculous behavior by both. I have followed the Stockade story with interest and liked what they were doing, but not anymore. Hard to see how this would even be enforceable in the U.S.
