Eventually MLS will have to move away from this model of owning all the contracts.

Definitely, but I feel like we are about a decade away of consistent growth from that happening. Two more good TV contracts, and people actually watching the MLS will go a long way. I just don't trust the owners to not to spend themselves into oblivion, especially going forward, as more and more TV money is promised, requiring more investment in players and wages, risking the whole league. This is especially concerning as the memory of the NASL evaporates. Slow and steady growth will hopefully insulate the league from major problems going forward.
