    I read MLS as Major League Soccer and was going to complain about the lack of respect of Lemmings here. Turns out it’s Messaging Layer Security…

      Tbf Major league soccer is very centralized. Or was when it started, no idea if it changed, but at least initially the league owned all the players.

        It still is 100% centralized.

        All “teams” or clubs are just franchise licenses. All players are actually employees of the league, not of the clubs themselves. The league can also dictate which clubs are allowed to sign which players. It’s kind of wild.
