According to the amazing Michael Lewis of Big Apple Soccer, MLS Board of Directors is scheduled to meet today and discuss the sale of Metrostars to Red Bull. If they approve the deal, it could be completed almost immediately.~ ~ ~ ~Jack Bell at the New York Times has more on the Metrostars - Red Bull story. Former Cosmos player Giorgio Chinaglia is quoted in the article as being involved in the new management of the team. From what he says, he appears to not care how MLS is even run. He seems to think they can just spend a ton of money and be the Cosmos all over again. Fool or visionary? Well, maybe he is just the type of radical MLS needs to start spending real money on players. Imagine that.~ ~ ~ ~All 4 CONCACAF Champions Cup return leg matches are tonight.
