Cool a little extra coverage for the Men's National Team, soccer, and hopefully a little plug for MLS and the allstar game.

We can hope so! After all, they'll need to explain what they're doing in Washington a month after the WC ended...gotta at least MENTION the All-Star game.
Good exposure!

It is pretty cool for the Nats to visit the Shrub.

I heard MLS officials arranged the meeting so overseas coaches would have a reason to release players other than the MLS All Star match.

Haven't seen the roster. So I don't know if the plan worked or not. Are Reyna, JOB, Sanneh, Regis, Stewart, et. al. expected?

Not this administration, but I believe DC United partied at the White House w/ Clinton after one of their MLS Cups.
