Which SE city would be the best landing spot for an MLS Franchise?

I bet this has been asked a ton, but asking anyway.
I say Nashville, Nearly 2 million people in the surrounding counties. Drew 30k for a mid week friendly against Paraguay. Nice destination city and if you worked it right could have a nice club in the area.
Music City FC
Of course when the SE proper gets a team it will be in Atlanta, which makes me nervous due to attendance issues and my hatred of all things Falcons.

Sounds like you already answered your own question.

Glad we got that out of the way in the OP.

Atlanta and it really isn't close.

I fricking wish Nashville.
Won't happen though. I would think Atlanta and an eventual expansion to St Louis is much more likely.

And it was fricking cold, and raining the whole time. And we lost.

Nashvegas would probably be the pick - it's a transient city and somewhat progressive (with solid demographics) and not completely football obsessed like other southern cities.

is New Orleans out of the question for this?
seems like we have a pretty large and constantly growing soccer fan base in the city (or maybe I just think this since I notice it more now)
