NEW YORK ? December 17 may fall during the offseason, but there it is still reason to celebrate if you?re an MLS fan: It?s the most important birthday in league history.
This year marks the 17th anniversary of the first formal unveiling of Major League Soccer to the world. Back on Dec. 17, 1993, the chairman and CEO of the World Cup USA 1994, Alan I. Rothenberg, presented the framework for America?s new league and unveiled the logo in an event held in Las Vegas in conjunction with the World Cup final draw.
