MLS Commissioner Don Garber spoke to local and national media Tuesday at Pinnacle, the new, world-class training home of Sporting Kansas City. Below is a transcript of Commissioner Garber's remarks.

When I walk through this facility — and having walked through Manchester City and AC Milan and Barcelona and Arsenal — I see levels of performance, attention to detail and branding, levels of connection with our federation.
