Talk:MLS Cup 1998

Fair use rationale for Image:MLS Cup 1998.gif
Image:MLS Cup 1998.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

First expansion team to win a U.S. major league championship
the Post-match section states that "the Fire became the first expansion team to win a U.S. major league championship". The following sentence says that Philadelphia won the NASL in their inaugural season. The seems like a contradiction to me unless I'm missing something obvious. BLAIXX 19:15, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Most sources agree that the Fire were the first to win in a major league, as the original NASL was not considered to be a mainstream major league.  Sounder Bruce  20:20, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Maybe I'll try to rephrase that second sentence to provide context. BLAIXX 14:00, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
