According to the Whitecaps website the TOA League is now 11 teams strong!
The addition of Tampa Bay and Baltimore brings the new league to nine teams, as they
join the owners of the Atlanta Silverbacks, Carolina RailHawks, Miami FC, Minnesota Thunder,
Montreal Impact, St. Louis Soccer United and Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
I guess some would look at this as a continuation of the war of press releases between the
United Soccer Leagues and the Team Owners Association, but nonetheless it's still news.
According to the press release the USL First Division will move forward next year without the
member clubs of the TOA, though Tampa seems to be on-board with the USL despite flirting with TOA
over the last few months.
