MLS Expansion: Atlanta

TheOriginalWinger.com notes that Arthur Blank, the owner of the Atlanta Falcons and founder of the Home Depot, is discussing the possibility of an MLS club in Atlanta.

This is a superb idea and would get the MLS back into the southeatern part of the country. I know throwball is king in the southeast, but there is a lot of soccer fans in Atlanta and they have a quality USL club in the Silverbacks to use as a foundation (it wouldn't be the first time and probably won't be the last).
