“With the addition of San Diego next season, Would you be in favor of MLS of restructuring to a divisional format and have scheduling like MLB where every team plays each other in the regular season rather than not getting every possible match up currently. The reason why I’m asking this is that on Saturday March 16th, this is the first time that Philadelphia has played Austin and this is Austin’s 4th season in the league. That’s not good for the fans.
2 possible setups you could have are that you could get 5-six team divisions with each divisional team playing twice (home/away) and playing every other team once alternating the home/away matches every year and still have 34 matches. The playoffs would be a bracket where anyone could play each other, 5 division winners get a top 5 seed and could play anyone in league based on seeding
Or 6-five team divisions where you play the divisional teams twice and every one else one splitting home/away games and have 33 matches. With the 6-five team model, you could keep the East/west model giving the 3 division winners on each conference a top 3 seed or scrap East/west model and let anyone play each other in playoffs based on points.”
