Blog Blurb: Vancouver/Portland/San Antonio MLB; Cinci/Nashville MLS

MLB
Portland       San Antonio       Vancouver

Which would be better baseball in the northwest for MLB and a Seattle regional rivalry?
Sometimes I wonder this:  Does Portland even care about MLB?  Personally, I haven't seen enough lust for a Triple-A team (realizing there's no Dub-A action out west).

Whiles sometimes I wonder if Austin and San Antonio's proximity too each other makes for a good crowd source, in addition to Texas Rangers claim, I wonder if it's harder to make a decision to award a team to either/or Austin/S.A..  With talks of the Columbus Crew seeking Austin instead of San Antonio (even though Austin seems deserving of something right now, I say NHL) I wonder even further.
MLS
Cincinnati       Nashville

I read rumblings of Nashville thinking of a location change for the field.  And that would be a breach of terms.  And I am wondering indeed about two things.
     1.)  Do officials understand or respect Major League Soccer?, and
     2.)  Does MLS deserve any?
Downtown means downtown.  It has been said time and time again.  Speaking to Cincinnati, while there are plenty of arguments and opinions on ambiance of a location, there are Blight Power politics holding up a business no-brainer.  It made MLS officials look a little bad on a promised announcement.  And Blight Power partiers have an inexcusably amount of folks doing what they do - incentivizing and running blight.  In 'cinderella Nashville and Cincinnati, it seems like the mayoral offices have been barely listening to conditions, while greater Boston, Seattle and Atlanta are permitted by MLS to be eco-friendlier than Cincinnati, Nashville and Detroit.
