Why transparency matters for MLS

Are you as tired of not knowing how much allocation money we got in a trade as we are?

"Per club and league policy, additional terms of the deal were not disclosed."

What a frustrating sentence.

As I'm sure all of you are aware, yesterday the Union announced two major roster moves. The first was trading General and Targeted Allocation Money for former D.C. United midfielder Chris Pontius. The second was trading Cristian Maidana and Andrew Wenger for the sixth Pick in the MLS SuperDraft and General and Targeted Allocation money.
