Correct. This could be a great market for the MLS. Seems like this team has drawn great crowds so far and this plan for a new stadium helps their cause
by the way - Phoenix is the 6th largest city in the United States. I had no clue.
So you have no MLS team in...
The 6th largest US City (Phoenix), the 7th (San Antonio), the 8th (San Diego), the 11th (Austin), the 12th (Indianapolis), the 13th (Jacksonville), the 14th (San Francisco)...this could go on for a while. San Jose is the 10th largest city in the US. I had no clue.
There are MLS teams in...
1) New York (2)
2) Los Angeles (2)
3) Chicago (1)
4) Houston (1)
5) Philadelphia (1)
9) Dallas (1)
10) San Jose (1)
15) Columbus (1)
21) Seattle (1)
22) Denver (1)
23) Washington, DC (1)
24) Boston (1)
29) Portland (1)
37) Kansas City (1)
40) Atlanta (1)
77) Orlando (1)
124) Salt Lake City (1)

Terrible list to use. Try the MSA (Metro Stats Area) list. When sports teams or network TV talk about "markets" this is the list they are talking about:

At what point does MLS see these cities pushing hard on stadium plans and say "you know what? Miami can wait. Let's get teams to Minny, San Antonio, and Sacramento first?"
I don't think it affects things. Vikings are sounding stronger and stronger. They are a Arthur Blank/Atlanta like investor that MLS likes.

Is Miami going to finally get into this league?

I really want Miami in this league. They'd definitely be another big spender and would bring in some big names.
The current controversies in the NFL that are turning off sponsors and viewers are nothing but GOOD NEWS for everyone else. Sponsors and viewers might see MLS and soccer as another alternative to spending their money on.
