A lot of folks this morning are calling for the end of the MLS All-Star game, or at least the current format of it. While I am more in the ladder part of the calling I do not see this current game going away at any point in the near future after what we saw…[continue reading]

It is that time once again, the MLS All-Stars take on a club from the other side of the pond. Feel the excitement? Yeah I honestly don’t. Just like every year I get less and less excited about this game, mostly because of the set up of the league taking on a club in preseason…[continue reading]

Just a friendly reminder that All-Star voting kicks off today. I fully expect a few clubs to stuff the ballot in favor of their players. I would imagine to see plenty of Seattle and Toronto guys leading the way this year in voting by the fans. Thankfully the league should use it’s usual 1/4 fans,…[continue reading]
