If you manipulate comments for drama you won't be getting many in the future. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you manipulate comments for drama you won't be getting many in the future. I dunno, sometimes I think the league and the players are all just a bit too familiar with each other; many are former teammates, friends. I had an insider report it was even a bit dull at times to be playing the same teams week after week after week. Maybe we need a bit more drama. gator, narduch, Cheeta and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeta Posted October 9 Share Posted October 9 ^. For sure. 100%. Came up on Britball in the 80s so appreciate a hearty amount of bi-polar coverage when it comes to my footie. Not going to see a lot of that in CPL, too young, no critical mass yet. Which is too bad. Yeah it's cheap, yeah it's easy but it can be great fun when you want to go slumming. If I was interested in MLS you can certainly find more of that flavour out there, but I'm not. CanadaFan123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLS you get a huge variety of teams you get to see home and away, players, different shirts, more than any other conventional league in fact. And it is still fairly flavourless and dull. It is even dull when the better teams come to visit, and has been dull even when football legends came to play (Pirlo and David Villa on the same team visiting, and yes, that game was flat as they come).

Lol. I agree. CPL and MLS are literally both ends of the spectrum of how big a soccer league should be. CPL is too small and MLS too big Edited October 10 by narduch nolando 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL is too small and MLS too big CPL at 12 teams would be fine. Bigger than the CFL, similar to many European leagues, reduce travel, more regional rivalries, that many more nice kits from Macron (we really don't deserve that design quality considering they must sell in the mere hundreds). Another hundred guys playing, so maybe 80 more Canadians making a go as pros. Too bad MLS does not have the vision and balls to go to two tiers, say 18 each tier. That would be truly spectacular, relegation and promotion battles. Ftduck, masster, narduch and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mihairokov Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 MLS is dull because of the salary cap, no? There's no real upsets or favourites when teams are artificially put at parity. Salt Lake visiting Charlotte isn't quite the same as Liverpool visiting Ipswich, or whatever else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
