Can we please just win one major championship? We haven't won a big one since 1977 and no the Timbers winning MLS Cup doesn't count.

>>74909655
All you have are the Blazers, so no.
Get another pro team or sit down.

Winning the Dutch cup is nice enough why wouldn't be MLS cup be. Football.

........soccer isnt yet anywhere near respectable enough for a MLS win to be bragworthy. Mentioning a MLS title here in the context of a city's sports achievement would get me laughed out of the room.
I bet that not even 30% of Portlanders know who the Timbers are.

That depends what room you're in. Is the room in Oregon? Probably get a thumbs up.
Is the room in Kentucky? They'd probably just laugh at you, though to be fair in that scenario they're probably really high on meth.

How is the MLS cup not a big deal? It's literally the biggest soccer organization in America.
>>74910581
Except it won't, Timbers are popular in Portland and even got a championship parade after winning the cup

Its neither a Lombardi trophy nor a Stanley Cup or World Series title
>>74911247
MLelS titles are on the same tier as college championships
probably even lower
>>74911247
Do they even put it on TV?
I've never seen it before
>>74909655
Don't you guys win shit in a baseball Minor League?

The US Women's World Cup Team got a tickertape parade in downtown NY, but that was a national team.
Football, Basketball, Baseball. Unless a city has a large hockey presence, it won't be on many people's radar. In Detroit, Hockey is #1, while in Cleveland, its #4. Soccer is even further below the main 4 leagues and colleges, due to it being loved by hipster europhiles.
