If opposed to Chivas in the MLS All-Star game, write the Commisioner

[soccrfn]

I am urging all to write a letter of displeasure to the MLS Commisioner to voice disapproval of the league for including Chivas in the MLS Allstar game.

Are you crazy?

I have to disagree with you on this one...

Playing the Chivas is a good idea. Jorge Vergara who owns the Chivas is looking to buy into the MLS. I'm sure he'll be in L.A. to see the game.

Like someone said before it's just an Allstar game...

I personally don't care who plays who. As was said before, "Its the frickin' all star game". The MLS all star team is just like the US team but without Fridel, Reyna, or O'Brian. It's still nice to see the best (or most popular) players in the league play together, regardless of who they play.

If they play the mexican team they would have to treat the game like a real game. They would even have to play some defense for a change.

Because if they don't our All-stars will take a beating in the score and on the field.

It is a good idea because I do not want to see joke soccer. I ant to see the real thing. I want us to high pressure them at time during this game.

Do you think the mexican team is going to fool around in this game. They will try to win the game.

Mexian still remember the WC.

Let's play hard and kick their ass. Maybe Arena will be watching to see who he might be able to use.

So this game will actually mean something to the players.

Don't you love when players get injured in all-star games?

If they play not to get hurt, and do things like tackling half assed. Then the odds are good that they will be hurt.

He is one MLS fan who is not going to watch. I can watch a Mexican side any given Sunday (Univision). Why should I watch this one I don't take naps on Saturdays. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz <cough-cough>zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

just sent them a message against the idea to play Chivas

i'll watch it but many others won't because not many people outside the Concacaf area know or heard about Chivas

[gschroeder]

Players are getting injured at practice. Perhaps they should stop practicing. Point is it's soccer, they are getting payed to play it and if they are too afraid of getting hurt I'm sure one of the alternates would love to play. For a once an all-star game will actually be a real game where people care who wins including the players. Think of it as an International Friendly. No one ever complains about those. People bitch every year about what a joke the all-star game is. Now finally it isn't a joke and people still bitch.

I for one, think it is a good idea to play the match in this fashion. I hope they keep it up in the future and invite some bigger, more well-known sides. Two sides of all-stars from a league with only 10 teams seems a bit much.

I think it's a bad idea. Here is why. A Soccer team is suppossed to be a collective unite that plays year around. The all star team is a joke c'mon this is a group of individuals that don't even know each other. How are they supposed to work as a team? By the way, I'm glad the Fusion folded haha! :)

It's an exhibition match. What difference does it make? And I think the majority of the guys are somewhat familiar with each other since the it's pretty much the US National team with a couple of guys thrown in.

Yeah, I'm sure you're happy with the Fusion folding because DC United has had nothing but success since Hudson took over. Must be the town...he was fine here.

*BTW, this is just a joke. I am really super damn confident in my country and league, but I decided to freak out that we might not be able to hang w/ a mediocre Mexican league team. I sure have a lot of balls, don't I?*



Fixed your post :D
