In a recent interview, commissioner of the MLL Dave Gross, talked about expansion ideas in the MLL. A stir began when during the MLL All-Star game, announcers spoke about how there would in fact be an expansion team in Dallas and Raleigh. None of this was confirmed by the MLL.

But, in this interview Gross talks about how there will be an expansion team in both Dallas and Raleigh. He talked about how when teams played there the response was great and business would work there. He also began talking about the Portland and Salt Lake City markets which could be candidates in the future. Gross said that for now, St. Louis is out of the question.

The entire interview is pretty good, he talks about the expansion of the MLL and how it will work. Click here to listen to the interview and scroll down to “my multimedia” http://www.sportsgist.com/davidgross
