Forbes: The Galaxy Are MLS' Most Valuable Team
I'm not sure about these lists of virtually everything these days that passes for journalism, but for what it's worth Forbes has now issued its inaugural list of the most valuable teams in MLS with the Galaxy sitting atop the rankings.
The financial magazine estimates the Galaxy are worth a cool $100 million (have they seen them play lately?) with revenues of $36 million that are double that of any other MLS team.
By comparison, Chivas USA are No. 10 among MLS teams, valued at a mere $24 million with revenue of $10 million.
The complete story and rankings are here.

Hi
I am a football fanatic and I follow LA galaxy quite closely, I watch them play before and well it was not fantastic and I do not think they are the best. If I am not wrong, they have not won in the last five matches already.
The Galaxy is the most valuable MLS team? Valuable for what, exactly?
