An acronym for Major League Soccer, the only professional soccer league in the U.S.
Not the first attempt to make soccer popular in the United States. Perhaps not the last, either, due to Americans loving to make money, and soccer being the most popular sport in the entire world... even though only the Americans call it soccer.

Nigel: I say, Paddy, I do believe this looks like an American MLS match on satellite.
Paddy: That league isn't fit ta wipe my arse with. Also why would an Irish and English lad hang out? Get out of me flat!

1) Major League Soccer, the only professional soccer league in the United States. Founded 1993. See also NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, and if you're feeling generous, WNBA. There are no other definitions for this acronym in popular use in the United States, at least not by anyone older than 15.
2) My Life Sucks. Typically used by whiny teenagers who don't have internet connections or access to Urban Dictionary, or they would know this was replaced by FML years ago... a term which is not only more common, but has its own website, wiki, Urban Dictionary page, and line of t-shirts.

MLS shortened term of Mediocre Soccer League, is a professional soccer league in America. It consists of 19 teams, and plans to add a 20th in the coming years. In it's 16 years of existence competition, and attendance has improved, but not as much as MLS fans fool themselves to believe. The play is sloppy, disorganized, and the refereeing is terrible. The best players are mediocre, or European players who are past their prime. A large percentage of the leagues stadiums are still half filled if lucky, the fans chants suck, and supporters groups are wack. The Table makes no sense, allowing more than half the league (10 Teams) to make the playoffs, and then letting teams in one Conference play in the others Playoffs. There is no promotion and relegation system, and on top of all that there is a tight salary cap to make sure no teams out do themselves and sign a foreign player in their prime, as well as to make sure small town teams get a chance to win too! The commissioner is an idiot, and neglects cities that would actually support a team. It gets no respect from other leagues (EPL, La Liga, Serie A, Budesliga, Mexican League, Serie A Brasil) except if it's public relations The only two somewhat respectable teams are LA Galaxy, and Seattle Sounders FC. Hopefully they get on track and Improve.
John: Hey bro, I'm sorry I'm early. What do you want to do until the Barca and Chelsea game starts?
Alex: I know! We could watch the MLS game of the week, Chivas USA vs NY Red Bull!
John: eww.. Fuck That! I think I'll go home and watch Fluminese vs Santos, or some EPL re-runs.
Alex: Yeah forget that. MLS is so wack, I think you lose brain cells watching that shit.
