You have to pay 3-4 "stars" 300+ and then fill in the gaps with 40K-90K kids or journeymen, and get as much allocation as you can. That's no way to grow a league, and MLS really needs to do something about it.

Yes, this is the crux of the issue for sure.

Hey, just another reason you need a really well-run team in MLS .
