The MLS is good, and getting better. It is not the Premiership, but then nothing is. It is probably equal, in talent, to the Championship League in England (one down from the top) or the Dutch League. There are some good players. If you have a chance to go to a game (perhaps if you are in DC

), you should. I used to have season tickets to DC United, and I love the atmosphere. You will appreciate the diverse nature of the crowd.
