I don't need to tell you about the Fire, though considering how little discussion they seem to inspire in Chicago, perhaps I do. They had the second-lowest attendance in MLS last season, and their home opener against Real Salt Lake on Saturday — a 2-0 Fire victory — drew a measly 13,024 fans, the lowest in the league. They haven't reached the playoffs since 2012 and finished with the worst record in MLS the last two seasons. They play their matches way out in Bridgeview in a stadium that Sports Illustrated writer Grant Wahl called "an 11-year-old, $100 million monument to poor decisions." They are — in every way a sports team in one of the greatest sports towns on the planet can be — completely off the radar.
