I was trying to pull up a lower division team list from 10 years ago. I consider ourselves lucky that we even have a team. Looks like the mid-west has struggled the most with Milwaukee, Cincinnati, and Indiana all being gone now.
Rochester Raging Rhinos Montreal Impact Toronto Lynx Pittsburgh Riverhounds Charleston Battery Richmond Kickers Atlanta Silverbacks Charlotte Eagles Hampton Roads Mariners Milwaukee Rampage Minnesota Thunder Cincinnati Riverhawks Indiana Blast Seattle Sounders Portland Timbers El Paso Patriots Vancouver Whitecaps Calgary Storm
So Pam Wolf doesn't think the Vikings should have the MLS clause in the bill. But also thinks that it would be great if Minnesota had their own pro soccer league that was played in the new stadium. Haven't been listening to the debate but thats what I got out of the posts on the messageboard over at KFAN.

Who the [censored] is going to come up with the money then? This incentive is I think quite fair to both the Wilfs and State.

Yes, she's the one who was totally clueless about the Stars even though she is from Blaine and stated that perhaps the owner of the "semi-pro" team in Blaine would be interested in bringing MLS here.

She is a hell of a lot smarter than the clod who used to represent that area!

Would someone tell Sen. Baak to shut up. He is really pissing people off by making this a partisan issue. #WhatDoesDFLReallyStandFor
PS to Sen. Baak: Justice Page is an asshole!
