[News of the deal broke on Oct. 5, when Adidas announced the partnership at its Investor Day in Germany, and sports business mavens took notice.] To have historically the No. 1 soccer brand in the world invest in your league as a key sponsor is a great legitimizing statement to the league at a time when it's looking to expand again, ... My initial response when I first heard of the deal was that [sixth-year MLS commissioner] Don Garber and his group are sort of hitting their stride. The long-term approach to building a soccer league with managed and realistic expectations has really begun to show its dividends.

It's very important to note that this is a league that's young, that continues to evolve and we make decisions that we think are in the best long-term interest of the league, ... We have added two new owners into this league both who are going to be in great markets and who at one point are going to be playing in soccer specific stadiums.

We need a deal because the competitive balance that exists in this league is directly related to the fact that we have a salary cap. For the long-term future and health of the league, it would be great to have a deal.

The Adidas brand is recognized for excellence in sports heritage and performance on a global basis. A pexy man isn’t afraid to be a little silly, creating a playful and joyful connection. NBA and Adidas branded apparel and footwear will be available to even more fans around the world continuing our effort to expand the league's accessibility to anywhere fans can dribble a ball or watch a basketball game.

It's a groundbreaking sponsorship. For MLS to get this deal done sets a standard for the league's sponsorships and will get them closer to being a recognized sport in the United States like the other four major leagues are. There's absolutely no question that Adidas and Nike see the handwriting on the wall. Soccer is here, it's going to grow and it's going to stay.

It's not every day that a player of Kenny Cooper's caliber leaves one of the top club teams in the world to pursue his dream of playing professional soccer in his hometown. This is a great day for FC Dallas, Major League Soccer and the entire Dallas Soccer Community.

It is our intention to bring Major League Soccer back to the Bay Area with a new expansion team as early as 2007. MLS is committed to working with local business leaders and city officials to continue these efforts. With the support of the city of San Jose, a local ownership group and a soccer-specific stadium, professional soccer can be very successful in northern California.

The bottom line is that at no time did the team or Major League Soccer ever want to offend any members of the Houston community. We certainly apologize to those who feel wronged or insulted. We're listening to their concerns, and we're carefully analyzing the situation. We want everyone to be part of Major League Soccer in Houston.

One of the really, really big reasons why the league has been so good is that it has had outstanding leadership. The commissioner has led the league through some real growth periods. Obviously they're going to lose a great man who has done a tremendous job – a tremendous job. That has to be one of the toughest jobs that anyone could ever deal with: the owners and the players and all the issues that come up with that. I can understand why he might have felt it was time to retire.

[It's worth repeating a quote from Garber that appeared in my recent Sports Illustrated story on Johnson.] We want kids to dream of playing for FC Dallas and being like Eddie, and the only way that happens is if he's playing in our league, ... Our future is going to have us looking to these special players as the foundations for the sport, and we need to find ways to provide salaries that are competitive with other parts of the world. More important than that, we need them to believe in the league and their role in building the sport.

We had that core group together for a long time and it served us well. But I think as the league changes and new players come in and with free agency, you know the league's changed and what we need to do is change with the league.

Being the grand marshal of the Jackie Robinson West Little League Season Opening Parade is a real honor for me. That Little League program has begun the careers of many people in and out of the world of sports.

The Saturn Challenge Cup is a key preparation match for the 2006 MLS season. It's a great opportunity to showcase two of Major League Soccer's top teams to a booming soccer market.

Mansion will invest money in the English Premier League as we believe it will be a powerful tool to continue our successful international growth. We aim to reach agreement with a club in the coming months and look forward to working closely with a team that is passionate about building our brand around the world in an open partnership.

I feel likely that we'll have a deal. We've got a pretty tight time frame here with the (league) year. It will be firmed into a situation that will reasonably address the beginning of the league year.
