Think logically. Do not pick a city just because you like it or live there. Think in terms of marketability, stadia, demographics, and revenue. |

Can't wrap my head around the idea of Charlotte, Columbus, and Seattle
I like Orlando, but there isn't really a decent venue for them to play at. Too much work for the Citrus Bowl to get it ready. |

"Can't wrap my head around the idea of Charlotte, Columbus, and Seattle"
I'm trying to spread the venues around a bit geographically and around major population areas that have acceptable stadiums.
Columbus would attract fans from the three major cities of Ohio and elsewhere in/around the state.
Seattle would attract fans from the Northeast and Western Canada. They also have a notable, although somewhat annoying soccer fanbase so I don't see how you can't wrap your head around this one.
Charlotte is one I'm willing to move due to it being in the east and right between Baltimore and Georgia which would attract fans from Kentucky, Tennessee, and other states, but I chose it over Kansas City because it's a much more noted soccer venue than Arrowhead Stadium. |

Without being biased, I think Charlotte would be a good spot. Not only does it attract fans from all across the South East, the stadium is good enough to hold that amount of fans, and the city can handle a large amount of people coming to the city.

Having actually been to Gilette for soccer, the view of the field and the match is absolutely terrible. |
