Ok kids, let's recap.
Stage one: make a website and fb page, get people from the outside interested. Sidenote: many of you probably aren't "likers" of the page because it posts info you already know. You should "like" it nonetheless so it has big #s.
Stage two: get legislators interested. I don't know how many of you actually wrote to people about it, but writing your local person is a good idea. Getting Mayor Rybak at the game and retweeting some MLS4MN news is great.
Stage three: The Vikes have been understandably busy with the stadium. All the other issues (MLS, ahem) could be pushed aside. As Tom Scheck tweeted back to me, MLS is an issue, but it's not THE issue.
So what's the next step? We need to get some sort of organization of talking to and lobbying for MLS. How? I'm hoping this thread can be a pretty on topic discussion of plans (I know, on topic? I'm dreaming).
Sidenote: getting the Vikes interested means, I hope, them buying the Stars. It will give them a chance to slowly build soccer before the big unveiling.

Wes, you have hit the nail on the head. This is no time to sit back and pat ourselves on the back. Now the dirty work begins.

"As Tom Scheck tweeted back to me, MLS is an issue, but it's not THE issue."

What does that even mean? Really, I have no idea? Who is saying MLS is an issue and what exactly is the issue?

It means: we've mentioned soccer briefly in the articles, but we have bigger fish to fry.
With all due respect, I think the idea of bringing a major sports league to the state is a bit more than "just another issue." Oh well.
