Well, I guess what I am saying is that I think it 
makes sense to have a second academy first before all 
10 (soon to be 11 or 12) MLS teams try their own 
reserve squads, etc. - that is a pretty huge step, 
don't you think?

So I guess what I am saying is that this is an 
opportunity to have that next step of the evolution of 
US soccer, make some money, raise the level of play of 
MLS, and raise awareness that soccer in the US is not 
second rate.

Yes to the first question, but as to the second, I 
think you have a situation where Bradenton is a part 
of P-40, but P-40 is more than just Bradenton.
