my theory is that they both are trying to get the most teams so they have the most money so they can take over the other one |
One is backed by MLS the other isnt… |
never said it was a good plan by both of them |
| Didn’t DA fold just a few short years ago due to not wanting to find the youth academies. Time will tell whether MLs can truly find what they are trying to do or whether this will be a short lived experiment like the DA |
This time's different, though. They've got MLS behind them, and you know those guys have serious cash. |
| Problem...there's too much money to be made on youth soccer, that's why things will work out for the MLS and their backing of these mlsnext tiers. |
Is it though? Womens's soccer isn't a cash cow and people who have cash don't love wasting it on losing propositions. |
NWSL has the fastest growing franchise values of any professional sports league over the last few years. Growth is what matters. |
Can’t grow too fast…that’s why the Nwsl has folded like 3 times. Nwsl academies/league will be coming to youth soccer just not anytime soon. Could it be possible Nwsl buys out ECNL? Cause idk if the Nwsl/ mls relationship is close |
Well seeing as there are club owners that own mls and nwsl team…. Rumor is that after the World Cup, MLS will start female league and will swallow up NWSL since some owners are invested in both |
Could it happen sure? but if that's what it takes for NWSL academies I'm not holding my breath |
Idk if some current Nwsl owners would sell to mls and for mls to start up a new women’s league would be hard n take a lot of money. We still got a few years till we find out what is going to happen |
I was so focused on coming up with a real response earlier when the easiest one was right in front me "This time's different" is a losing strategy. But... but... but... It's different SURE |
Boys DA was folded due to MLS wanting to take over and rebrand - Girls DA folded because the boys left and US Soccer didn't want to manage it. |
| What would happen if Fox got the GA |
