After last year, I don't think we will be invited to participate in any Cup games... Edit: looks like we have been invited to one already.. Carolina Challenge Cup.
As much as I love the Carolina Cup ... it isn't a "Cup Competition" it is a pre-season competition that involves a Cup Since we didn't win anything last year, we shouldn't be involved in any "cup competitions" this year, is what I think he meant. Should be only winners/runners-up of MLS Cup that are invited to regional cup competitions, possibly Open Cup winners for some tournaments.
after last "season" not year... Meaning, of all the cups (that actually mean something) we participated on, we came away with none.
