How many times do I have to say Austin is not a minor league city? Do you not see the difference between a 3rd division team playing at a high school football stadium with football lines still on it and a 1st division team playing in a SSS? I mean come on man.

I lived there for 3 years, I think I understand Austin a lot better than you do.

You must be an awful lawyer

You post nothing to back up your position

No articles saying Austin should have a team or anything

Your now stance is Austin should have a team bc I said so

For what it’s worth, I think Austin would be a good MLS city. I could see a smaller-scale version of what happened in Atlanta, which didn’t support minor league soccer at all.

The younger, more diverse population in an urban area should work well with the right investment.

But screw Precourt. Columbus needs to keep a team as one of the OG soccer cities in the U.S.

If Austin was serious about it they should have put a bid in for MLS expansion

Yet no one in the soccer world agrees with you

Just bc you are a decent size city does not mean you deserve a pro team. Especially when you didn’t support its previous clubs and a town that Texas is always king.

You're not much for context, are you?


You're the one who asks for reasons why, are then given reasons why, and respond by saying I didn't actually give any reasons

Are you stoned or something man? What's going on, I'm worried about you

Once again your entire argument is Austin should have a team bc I said so.

And you are totally ok with stealing one

If they were serious they would have put a bid in. Maybe had some grass roots campaigns back by some potential owners.
