Grant Wahl: New York Cosmos' return to NASL is the first step to franchise revival



The first thing I noticed upon arriving at New York Cosmos HQ in Soho wasn't the black-and-white photo of Pelé hanging with Robert Redford, the huge Cosmos logo on the exposed brick wall or even the classic picture of Giorgio Chinaglia. Nope. The first thing I noticed was the number of employees: six. When I last visited the same Cosmos office in November 2010, at a time when the previous regime was busy lighting $10 million in cash on fire, there were at least 30 employees.

So I guess we have to lower their rating on the Clown-o-meter from a 10/10 down to a 7/10?
