I don't agree with Kelly that the players capitulated. I think they got what they could and are working towards something better. Hopefully next CBA.

It was a pretty bad deal for the players though. Free agency after 8 years only applies to a very small percentage.

The main way they could've got more money was increasing the salary cap. And if reports are true it's only going up to $4.2 million over 5 years. Many fans were hoping for closer to $5M by this year.

The owners are going to be making a nice chunk of change the next five years with the increased TV deal and all the expansion money coming in. I guess the original owners wanted one great deal to make up for all the losses they sustained during the early years.

Also, check out this interview with Wandrille Lefevre (https://joeyalfieri.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/listen-talking-new-mls-cba-with-imfc-player-rep-wandrille-lefevre/). He talks about why the Impact players unanimously voted against the new CBA.

So Audi are "Official Automotive Partner of MLS" now... anyone know if/how that affects TFC's relationship with Kia?

It shouldn't. I'm pretty sure Kia is the official partner of NBA and Ford for the Raptors.
