I AM SPUTNIK'S PARACHUTE ACCOUNT
We've got a local soccer team in my city: The Thunder Bay Chill.

I know they're in the developmental league, and have had some success, so I was wondering if some MLS experts could clarify some things about how the "minors" work.

1) Is it like Euro leagues, where if you finish 1st, or win a playoff, you rise to the next league; or more like minor league baseball, where winning is nice, but you're stuck at your current level?

2) What kind of talent level am I looking at? I remember when the team first started up, looking at their roster, and seeing the names of guys who I knew were washed up in high school, fat and unmotivated. That being said, that was almost 20 years ago. Is it still just local guys hoping to get noticed and paid, or is there a chance I'll see very raw talent?
