I can’t figure out which two teams you are talking about. LA would be my guess for one team.
The other ?

I am VERY for parity and I don’t like the DP rule, necessary evil maybe, but MLS has been fairly evenly distrributed. Even if you think LA has a dynasty going, they have to pay OG to keep that going. Did you see them the first half of the season ?

Lampard is not going to do much and having OG leave will negate any gains the team makes, plus a LOT.

If you look at how many teams in the final the past few years aren’t named New York Red Bulls, you’d see that probably NY isn’t blowing everyone out of the water, despite shiny toys like Henry and Cahill.

Assuming Lampard does not come over for the league minimum – should we be worried that 2 teams are consistently blowing the rest of the league out of the water?

After all, the whole point of the salary cap and the begrudging acceptance of DPs was to keep relative parity and avoid Cosmos 2.0.

I feel like landon donavan loves the game and loves to play it but for him, the biggest thing, is that it gives him the opportunity to help give back to the community through things like MLS Works and such, if youve ever seen the make a wish video, or even the response he gave scoring the game winning goal. Klinsmann says you should try to get on to the best team so you can go to UEFA and be winning at the highest level every year, while i think for landon soccer is just a way to help him give back to the community he loves, and i dont think you can disrespect that.
