This response may seem off-subject, but here it goes. Could showing the world Portland is a major league city by earning it through a soccer league structure similar to those leagues in Europe? In those leagues poorest performing teams are relegated to a lower league, and the best performing teams from lower leagues are given the chance to compete in the top leagues. That way teams in the USL could perform in MLS if they are worthy.
