Houston United - Yes, It Could Have Happened
While reading all of the comments regarding MLS's New York and Houston moves recently, I learned something amazing from a source. At one point, we were within a day or two of an announcement that Houston 1836 was becoming Houston United. No, I kid you not. Apparently, this idea had more than token support, and plans were put in place to look at the idea and present it as a "Look, we're bringing our Anglo and Mexican fans together" idea. Two things apparently saved MLS from this travesty:
- Internal resistance to the idea was not simply a passive encounter
- Someone had already beaten them to the punch.

Stephen Zack said at the Screaming Eagles Annual Meeting that he expects another United in the league but DC will always be the best.
It does make more sense than DC United...
