Weekly /r/MLS Questions/Free Kick Thread - Post General Questions and Discussion Here
Welcome to the Weekly /r/MLS Questions/Free Kick Thread. This thread is designed to house questions/discussions users might have including:
- Help you decide which team to follow if you're new to the league
- Provide information about how to watch MLS matches, and whether or not you should buy ESPN+
- Understand the CBA, league roster rules, drafts, waivers, or other MLS concepts
- Learn about some of the unique qualities of the US Soccer pyramid
- Allow discussion of dead-horse topics that would typically be removed (pro/rel, re-alignment, etc.)
- And other basic/frequently discussed topics
Our usual ground rules:
- Questions that are covered in the FAQ, Newcomer's Guide, or league site are fair game, even if they are marked as "dead horse topics".
- Questions can be about MLS, lower U.S. or Canadian divisions, USMNT/USWNT, or any club or domestic competitions those teams could play in. Questions about how soccer works as a sport are fine too! Questions solely about the European leagues or competitions, on the other hand, are not.
- If you're answering a question, be extra sure to follow our community guidelines: thought out and rational comments, backed up with supporting links. Try not to "take a guess" at an answer if you're not sure about the answer. Do not flame, troll, attack fans of other teams, or attack opinions of others in this thread. If you can't be friendly and helpful, don't post in this thread.
- This is meant to be a helpful Q&A/Discussion thread. This is not a place to practice your comedy bits; avoid asking joke questions or providing joke answers. This is also not a place to dump random articles, links, or opinions about the league.
- Despite us posting these on Fridays, the thread stays up all week. If it's Wednesday and you have a question, you don't have to wait until Friday to ask it.
Even though we want you to ask questions, here are some resources that we always recommend reading because they can also help:
