Aren't we in our third season right now?

Promises are made to be broken. That was before Traffic had a shift in who was running things. Things have tightened up considerably since Stefano Hawilla took over.

We are in our 3rd season of the "Stars" but our 2nd season as a league-owned team. The NSC owned the team the first year of the NASL and before the new higher USSF 2nd Division standards were created.

With all that said I think the Stars are still safe for one more year. But if an owner can't be found after that I don't have a lot of hope, at least for now.

We are in the second season, but if there are no buyers in the pipeline and the league has two new teams on the field next year there's really no reason for them to continue with the Stars. Plus, if the Vikings are still making noises about MLS, even if it is 5 years away, who would buy the Stars other than the Vikings? And the Vikings aren't exactly engaging the Stars or their fans yet.

It's not like the league signed a contract with anyone that guaranteed a third year, AFAIK.

Which all goes back to my original point: save talking nostalgically for the future--let's try to enjoy what we currently have and continue street promoting like we've done to get "butts in the stands" and keep it going.

Speaking of having a team...

On the NASL site there is a broken link for the Mississippi Brilla next to the Atlanta Silverbacks.

You mean in the code? I don't see it when I pull up the source.

I don't see it either. Plus, I don't know that Jackson MS quite fits into the rest of NASL as a division-2-caliber market.

Let's see if this works. Took a screen grab. Might have to open image in a new tab.

I'm not getting the same result but... there it is.

that is probably some mess from a story on the Open Cup one of Atlanta's potential opponents is Brilla
