Crew about to go down to Cincinnati FC in front of 30,000+ at the Nip...looks like they might be a decent candidate for expansion

That game was fucking pathetic from the Crew's standpoint. They attacked for 75 of the 96 minutes (6 stoppage), and still lose 1-0. Playing Jahn the entire game proved Berhalter and co. had no desire trying to find a spark to win this game.
The constant lack of depth at striker on this team is disappointing. Always have a decent starter, then a HUGE drop off for the #2. This year's squad is no different.

Yep. The lower tier teams compete in group play prior to the actual tournament bracket being played currently. MLS teams essentially get a pass until the 4th round.

Uh, just got word from a source about the team...that I do not like. Announcement possibly tomorrow.

If it’s in reference to the team possibly moving to Texas, I’m not buying it. Just a weak attempt at extorting Columbus out of money for a new stadium.

I hope so. But this comes down from media connected to the team at this point.
I had this story an hour before Grant Wahl

I'm with you. There is no stadium here for them to play at, UT will not let anyone touch their field. There's no space downtown, and UT needs a new basketball arena so. It's cute but likely is a bad bluff

Totally agree man. I hate this. Makes no sense, basically moving from one college town to another, but with an even bigger diluted market that hasn't proven great.
I only worry about MLS wanting Cinci about that same timeframe. Trade Columbus for Cinci? Not a good look for everyone involved. Owner has never seemed interested in the city and you announce this right before playoffs? It's a sabotage or a bluff.
Will let you guys know the second I hear anything.

Tejas can handle 3 MLS teams but the 3rd would be in San Antonio.

Interesting. As I recall Precourt has to keep the team in Columbus for a minimum of 10 years (conditions of purchase) with ONE exception. His ONLY out is a relocation to Austin TX.
