Then, there is NASL's management. The management I'm talking about is the league's CEO, President, Commissioner and Board Of Governors (AKA: The club owners themselves). Every last one of them had ONE job and that is to make a start up league look stable, profitable and appealing. They actually achieved building a league with some potential and they actually made themselves sound wonderful as a MLS alternative, but they screwed up. They keep chasing after dreams that are very unrealistic especially without Traffic Sports. Without Traffic Sports, the league managed to get two national TV deals, a ESPN3 streaming deal and a few clubs have international TV deals. That's impressive. Sadly, I feel the Traffic Sports scandal hurt the league a lot despite the wonderful steps the league made going forward.

Chicago, LA, San Diego and Detroit are one of the 6 cities said trying to join the league by 2018 to the latest. Some are having trouble finding a stadium. The NASL almost had Hartford and Virginia, but there was issues going on with the investors instead of the NASL. Rochester Rhinos almost joined the league during the NASL's first season. I have no clue what happened. Buffalo New York was more of a rumor than a actual interested city.
