there i fixed it for you.

what's happened in MLS since Becks came along?

Designated Player Rule was implemented because of him. teams were able to get players like Juan Pablo Angel, Rafa Marquez, Thierry Henry, Robbie Keane, Federico Higuain, Tim Cahill, Marco Di Vaio, etc.

5 new teams have come into the league. there's been new TV deals and viewership is going up every year (albiet slowly). attendance is 7th in the world for soccer leagues and 3rd in the US among all sports.

6 new stadiums have been built (and 1 on the way) specifically for soccer teams. even the lower leagues have been growing. lots been going on.

>Nah, I'm bullshittin. Most of us still don't give a fuck.

speak for yourself.
