I suspect the club would move from Interbay to Starfire, which would completely cut them off from the community -- I never attended a #ReignFC game while they were there, for instance.
For me, #USL1 <-> #USLC makes a lot of sense, as does #USLW <-> #USLS, but looking at the reality of how hard it will be for #BallardFC just to appear in the #OpenCup, I can't imagine what promotion from semi-pro to fully pro is supposed to even look like.

Watching #BallardFC win the #USL2 championship over the weekend has me thinking about #prorelforusa . Like, I get that it would be fun to follow Ballard in #USL1, but it seems fraught. The club would need all new players, because Ballard is made up of college kids that play NCAA soccer during the USL1 season. I know we root for laundry, but it wouldn't be the same without Stas and PK and Gaffney and the rest of the crew. The front office would have to hire like crazy, too.

Looking forward to bringing the lower-league soccer wasteland in the US to Mastodon.
@MrTuktoyaktuk @tmsnxadam @aggiepm so far NGS owns the #ProRelForUSA hashtag on fediverse and we should all mercilessly get Ben and Ted defederated if they try to take it here.
Ben and Ted, if you ever read this: 🖕🖕
@pirmas697 Not just DCFC but I was thinking of making bot updates for all the professional teams, as well as a few high-profile amateur and culture accounts. Even DCFC folks would want to have more options.
And yes, I think we win #ProRelForUSA by default here!
