I hope Garber listens to Klinsy

I want MLS to keep its balanced schedule after Montreal and the 20th team enter. If it does not keep that balanced schedule it should be because of travel and not because playing 38 games is too much. I understand there is US Open Cup and CONCACAF CCL for some clubs but that is why we have larger rosters.

I am not one to say that if MLS wants to be considered one of the best leagues in the world we should be exactly like all the rest with promotion/relegation and not having playoffs etc (I like the playoffs actually and even don't mind having 10 teams make it as it makes the last month of the season very interesting for ideally 12-13 teams). But I do think a balanced schedule of 38 games against 19 opponents is important.

Here is what Klinsy said about MLS:
"The big challenge is for MLS overall, how can they stretch that season into a format that is kind of competitive with the rest of the world?" he said. "Right now it's not competitive. If you have a seven-, eight-month season, that's not competitive with the rest of the world."
