"....with May 10 as a targeted return date."
I don't agree with what MLS is doing here. In fact, this is just terrible.
Right now there is a major issue with people not taking this seriously enough. MLS are just contributing to that by acting as though an endgame is in sight (which, btw, the NBA, NHL and MLB are not doing)
The US curve of daily new cases (scroll down to see it here ) is quite frightening.

Canada's curve is no better. This thing is not getting better, or anywhere close to under control.

We are still in the max containment phase. Anything that distracts from that, or somehow enables people to get ready to move on...
IS BAD.
IT MAKES THIS PHASE LONGER AND MORE DEADLY. The end is not in sight.
Plus this is pointless kabuki. The relevant authorities own this issue. Not the leagues or teams.
