.lol....sht...like i said....zzzzz... i give zero about soccer...

I respect a person's freedom to not care for soccer, but what's the point of going into a thread that is clearly about soccer and interjecting your opinion amongst fans who are clearly excited about this opportunity?

Like, if you really "give zero about soccer" then you wouldn't take the time to post your dissenting opinion. 

I don't much care for soccer myself, but I wouldn't go out of my way to be a turd about it.

It’s all but guaranteed that Charlotte or Raleigh will get a team (with the increased expansion) and soccer will thrive in North Carolina regardless of where the team is.

It’s never been about the support but rather about the funding.

Charlotte’s diversity makes it an easy target market for a team. There’s no coincidence that the International Cup and Gold Cup matches sell out year after year.

Additionally North Carolina FC located in Cary, NC house the biggest youth to professional  soccer program in the entire country with over 13,500 players. 

I get not everyone likes soccer, just like not everyone likes hockey... However the old boys club can still watch their NASCAR on Sunday while the rest of us tune in to watch North Carolina’s MLS team.

You are the only one bitching, bruh :p

[OldNorthPowell]

I like the idea of Carolina FC as the name. Carolina should no doubt be the name of the team though. Regardless of whether it is in Raleigh or Charlotte.

when i click on the Carolina Panthers News and Talk...thats what i expect...at least NFL topics...Soccer is like watching a 15 inning baseball game that ends 2-1...it sucks...its has as much action as Pro Bowling...

Miami, Nashville, and Austin already have three spots. Charlotte needs to make a push as Sacremento, St. Louis, Detroit, and San Diego are already talking. Columbus may move to Austin which would open a spot. But yeah ... better start making noise.

Because you do not understand the game.  Soccer is like chess.  It’s all about formations and tactics.  You can be a shitty team but if you can get it just right, you can beat anyone.

All you want is a result without understanding how.  People that watch soccer know that it’s not always about goals.  Some of the best games I have ever seen finished in a tie.  Take champions league City vs. Spurs few days ago.

...i've watched it...i get it...it still sucks....im sure the majority of the  UK thinks NFL sucks...im ok with that.... just not enough action for me...i'd like baseball if a game was 5 innings, a full count was 2 and 1...the fence moved in 100 ft and the bases made out of fake tittys...

Not enough action?  You’d rather watch commercials for 1.5 hours?  That’s more action?

Nope.  It’s during Panthers offseason.

The MLS plays in September and October with more games and playoffs in November/December.

Coordinating the game schedules between NFL and MLS isn’t a problem. Atlanta does it.

The problem for Charlotte would be potential turf issues with 2 teams playing on natural turf (Atlanta uses artificial turf).
