Minnesota is already a hub for volleyball. Now, it's getting a pro team.
Many details remain to be worked out, but the yet unnamed franchise will join League One Volleyball Pro (LOVB) for the 2027 season.

In Northfield, Minnesota, masked ICE GOONS violently abducted a father. The Goons smashed a car window, beat and dragged the man at gunpoint, while his teenage son filmed the incident and begged them to stop. The father has not been seen since. (November 11, 2025)

In sum, MLS is "Prioritizing the exponential financialization of the sport at the direct cost of fan experience: enshittification. Itās taking American soccer, something built on communities, built by fans creating unique atmospheres, and itās sucking the blood out of it...and repackaging it."

I think St Paul's Downtown finally hit bottom a while back when the family of ghouls who owned so much of its properties finally died. Mayor Carter spent a lot of energy fighting them, which I don't think a more "business friendly" leader would do.

Pretty cool that 12.99 will now get you access to a mind bending drama based on highly structured and inscrutable rules with themes of identity and free will set to a backdrop of corporate desperation and overreach and also severance is on there I guess

Every case i see for āmls growthā prioritizes wealth at the expense of fans. Bigger franchises fees, more money, more subscriptions, more private equity. Nothing involved with growing the game apparently involves actual fans who make the game unique.

The real question is how will they change the format. A 2 month break in the middle of the season will be murder. So will there be fall/spring seasons? Something to make a nov 30 match have stakes?
