For all you Culichis out there (which unfortunately we have a lot here). What do you guys prefer, a culichi or a chilango? Maybe a future post here at Calecia.com who knows. Anyways, Culiacan just won the final of the Primera A division, and have half a ticket into the First division, which means that the will play the winner of the next tournament and the winner of that home-away series, will automatically advance into the First Division. If Culiacan wins the next tournament, well they advance automatically. For all you football lover's who don't know shit bout soccer, this is the way it works. In every country that has a soccer league, there's a few divisions, in Mexico there's the First division which is where all the top dogs are, America, Chivas, Cruz Azul etc... and then there's Primera division A, which is where Tijuana, Culiacan, etc... play. Every year, the last place team in the Primera Division descends to the Primera A, and the Champion of the Primera Division A ascends to the Primera Division. I think this makes the league much more competetive and exciting. In the Spanish League, 4 teams descend and 4 teams ascend, making it much more tougher and exciting. Do you guys think this would make football more interesting in the USA ?

This is the way it should be, so you don't have teams losing each game of the season just to get a better draft pick. If they lose, then they're out... literally.

Is there a draft in soccer? How's it work getting new players?

Where would the Chargers be if this is how it was? I don't think it's about competing in the NFL, but more about the bottom line, money.

If Culiacan makes it, I will finally have a soccer team to root for.

The US teams is pretty good.
The greatest moment of my soccer watching life was when USA eliminated Mexico a couple years ago. It's not that I dont like Mexico it's just that I was tired of all the fucken hype.

I don't know anything about this thread, but I just wanted say this. Good-Bye.
