Well, the expansion franchise, if you missed it, was awarded back to San Jose. A new stadium will be built there, but they will be back in action (as the Quakes?) in 2008.
Quote:
Thanks to Lew Wolff and partner John Fisher, Major League Soccer knows the way back to San Jose.
The highlight of MLS Commissioner Don Garber's press conference on Wednesday was the official announcement that the San Jose Earthquakes will become the 14th team in the MLS beginning in 2008, under the ownership of Wolff and Fisher. Due to stadium complications, San Jose had lost its team to Houston in 2005. But Wolff and Fisher are committed to reaching a deal that will bring the club a new soccer-specific stadium, preferably on city-owned land next to San Jose International Airport.
