Well it is nowofficial, Seattle is getting an MLS team. Well known Galaxy fan Drew Carey is part of the ownership of the future Seattle club. The team will potentially begin play in 2009. The Seattle team will be the 15th team to play in MLS with a 16th coming sometime in or before 2010. The league may expand to 18 teams by 2012.
So San Jose and Seattle will be joining the league but that leaves one more unnamed team to join by 2010. Who will it be? Philadelphia and St. Louis seem to be the top 2 locations. I would bet each of them have a team by 2012, but who will come first?

i stand corrected, but i still have to point out the major typo at the beginning of your post. i think you meant “now” but you typed “not” which tottally through me off and i couldnt follow the rest of the story. go ahead and fix that for me
It is fixed, thanks for pointing that out.
It would be smart if they added another team along with Seattle to keep the league at an even number of teams, maybe there is still hope for St. Loius in 2009.
