Phoenix is one of the worst cities in the US for air pollution, smog, traffic, and suburban sprawl. Portland is one of the cleanest cities in the WORLD and they are the model for all American cities.
not really...for the usa-mexico game, there were probably only about 20,000 americans there. it was mostly mexicans. plus, sam's army wasn't overly excited, and the atmosphere was basically composed of mexican chants and songs...but eventually i do think phoenix should get a team.
Ya, I agree. I love this portland supporters group but you can't discount The Texian Army/ El Batallon. Best case scenario- Portland travels really well with their new MLS team to Houston's brand new stadium, where the supporters groups sing and chant towards each other all night!
yea houston has great support. if you wanted to rip on some mls supporters, u should have used columbus, new york, los angeles (i've never heard them sing or chant), or RSL. dallas is true tho...VAMOS UNITED
This comment has received too many negative votes show
Phoenix is a much better choice than Portland to host a MLS team.
Much larger population
Larger number of Soccer Fans example (70,000) sold out Univeristy of Phoenix Staidum recently for a match between U.S./Mexico
Already has several facilities*
I hope you do get one but MLS would be foolish to choose Portland over Phoenix.

Send this to Don Garber, commish. of MLS. That guy is a douchebag if he doesn't put you in MLS in the next 3 years.
