So to sum it up.
You will scour the community colleges for players of Mexican heritage to compliment the Mexican talent in a USL D-2 team ?
How exactly does that help the US game ?

Again Leo, how does it help the US game to have a load of Mexican players gaining experience at your team ?
Go to Mexico and start a team there for Mexican players.

Why does Leo have to worry about helping the US game when USSF doesn't worry about it?
Plus, it's Leo's money. If he wants to start a team using Mexicans as his foreign players what's the problem with that? Say Leo develops a talent like Herculez Gomez and sells him to Tigres for $300,000. Its his plan, he can do as he pleases.
Good luck Leo.

How many Mexicans will get work permits or visas to play for your team ? Not many is my guess.

Originally posted by Leo Orozco: I know,but I will look for the ones who are living here in the US allready and the Ones who do have their Visas or Work Permits. Keep in mind MLS is starting to develop a deep reserve system. With you being in Calif. you are going to have to compete with Chivas and the Victory in farming out Mex/Amer. players. Plus if you grab an affiliation with one Mex. team, then you are closing the door on all of the other MFL fans. Find your talent, develop them and then go off and look for a good club partner. It will be better for you to show a club something of a finished product (player development), then just going on ideas.....trust me I'm learning the hard way with the Galleons & academy. ...good luck though.
