Well, this is depressing…
The MLS, the soccer league here in the U.S., is the 67th strongest league in the world according to new rankings by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS).
Yeah, that’s right, 67th.
That is behind such powerhouse leagues as Zimbabwe, Macedonia, Lebanon, Tunisia and Iran.
Here are the top ten:
1. England
2. Spain
3. Italy
4. Brazil
5. Argentina
6. Germany
7. France
8. Mexico
9. Colombia
10. Portugal

i’d like to see the methodology on that one.
that cannot be. was that study done before or after becks?
yeah, but how do we rank in rugby? At least 56th probably.
Perhaps that is true, but I have a hard time believing that MLS teams would not be able to beat league teams in Zimbabwe, Macedonia, Lebanon, Tunisia and Iran.
