    I'm assuming this weekend's games are out of question.

    Galaxy (Donovan, Albright, Glen) - away to Kansas City on July 1st
    Chivas USA (O'Brien) - home to Houston on June 28th
    Real Salt Lake (Pope, Sequeira) - away to Chicago on June 28th
    Kansas City (Wolff, Conrad, Johnson) - home to D.C. United on June 28th
    Colorado (Cherundolo) - home to New England on July 4th
    Houston (Ching) - away to Chivas on June 28th
    D.C. United (Olsen) - away to Kansas City on June 28th
    New England (Dempsey, John) - home to Dallas on June 28th

    I guess Claudio Suarez is the only MLS player left in the World Cup.

    I think that he misspelled "Mastroeni."

    Well right back has been a problem for us, and Beckerman's our usual d-mid. Does this mean we're sending Mastroeni to Germany?

    So Bianca's girlfriend's first away game back is against the team with the second lowest attendance in the league? Wish he'd had that kindof luck at the WC.

    Sitting in an airplane for 10+ hours will probably rule O'Brien out of playing in the Chivas USA - Houston game....

    I don't know if this guy knows for a fact or if he's just using conjecture, but:

    The Americans lost to Ghana down in Nuremberg on Thursday evening and before lunch yesterday the players were already gone

    Isn't today Friday??? Yeah, I think this source is weak. If Dell'Apa had said it I might believe it.

    I've been looking for this information, although I would assume that the Wednesday matches will be when we see these guys back on the field.

    I was at the Ghana game and I was very horse, dehydrated, and maybe pulled a hammy. At about the 70th minute I needed a sub, but Bruce left me in the stands. I will still be at the DCU game today. ;) Olsen played a significantlyi more important role than I did so he may be a bit more tired...:p

    Olsen didn't play. Neither WC players are in the RSL/NE game.

    Well, it's not as if he's gotten completely worn out the past two weeks.

    Johnson, Wolff, Olsen all no shows for tonights games.

    Dempsy was there

    I wonder if Obrien will suit up for Chivas

    And, no Obrien on the bench for Chivas.

    We should start a pool on how many matches JOB will actually play in MLS

    Johnson and Wolff weren't even on the bench in KC. Are they injured? Or just resting?

    Meanwhile, Ching has played in two matches, and Dempsey helped gain 3 against Dallas.

    You'd think O'Brien could at least could sit with his teammates on the sidelines to show support.

    On several occasions, the camera panned to show JOB enjoying a meal in the stadium's restaurant while his teammates battled the Dynamo.
