MLS Commissioner Don Garber stands with the Philip Anschutz Trophy and welcomes … Philip Anschutz, who once owned roughly half the teams in the league but whittled down his holding to just the Galaxy. He’s not one for public speaking – a lot of journalists over the years have tried and failed to interview him and get the definitive word on why and how he decided to singlehandedly prop up Major League Soccer when it could’ve folded – but he is taking the microphone from Taylor Twellman and paying tribute to the fans.
Now Maya Yoshida takes the trophy to his teammates, and that’s where we’ll leave it for today. Thanks for following along with us today. Next: MLS Year 30, a potential change to a new calendar, and more dramatic unpredictability in a league in which teams’ fortunes can change so rapidly.
