    And this is why MLS plays a March-November schedule. I was weighing my hypothermia risk all week before they finally moved this game.

    Leagues reschedule games. Businesses reschedule events. The league goes on. No worries.

    I lived in Alaska for 2yrs and boy when the temp goes past -30 you get hypothermia by just breathing the air .

    I once had to change planes in MSP airport one January and the temp was -20. Just walking through the tunnel from the plane to the terminal, it was so cold I could feel it in my lungs from jsut breathing.

    March seems to be the strangest month, weather wise, from year to year. This year I'm looking at snow out my window. Last year on this date? 82 degrees.

    Maybe no one is, now...

    Although they've moved the game into an international window, so come Sept I'm guessing some people will be worried that some players won't be available for this game.

    I thought I did too, but freezing temps have detracted greatly from our showpiece game, MLS Cup. IMO.

    For better or for worse, the league's showpiece game is the ASG.

    If they thought MLS Cup was more important, relatively speaking, they'd perhaps move it to a more temperate month.

    Easy - they should move MLS Cup to when the ASG is, and move the ASG to when MLS Cup is. All they need is a few of these:
