As Indianapolis leaders head to Major League Soccer all-star festivities this week, the city's bid to land a franchise - while not fully fleshed out - is further along than efforts in other cities that have been mentioned as possible franchise sites in recent years. In a matter of three months, Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett has identified a downtown stadium location, received a key approval for the site and has even picked up some statewide political support. All are important to making the city attractive to MLS.
