If Crew host USOC why aren't they playing in CCS?

    Please visit www.usopencup.com and enjoy articles written by Daniel Feuerstein in "FEUERSTEIN'S FIRE".

    If you take a look the Crew is playing their home match (if they host it) at Jesse Owens Stadium. Is there a problem with Crew Stadium all of a sudden? I originally thought that Crew Stadium got re-named, but I see that it's a different area. Why is that?

    It's a charity match with proceeds going to Connor Senn. Also, traditionally attendence for the first match has been appaulling. I think it's a good move.

    Plus the state fair starts on the same day, which would be a traffic nightmere.

    Unless you really love riding around in tractor-towed wagons full of sunburned little kids high on sugar and their suicidal parents.

    As opposed to standing around sunburned, drunk, and suicidal Crew fans?
