Agree about MLS being substandard. I did sort of accidentally see a few minutes of their final this year when I stumbled onto it during an NFL commercial break, but normally I never watch.

It was brutal. Long ball after long ball, no creativity, no runs. Neither team would make it out of the English Fourth Division.

Off topic to your post in a way, but the Euros use relegation in their leagues, I think the same system would benefit American sports...every one of them. Too many teams would rather earn money than win (Clippers, Pirates, and Royals anyone?) and thus refuse to field a competitive team.
