It could happen. I would be suprised to see it a few other players take a crack at gettin' in club in Europe. For the sake of RSL, I hope he stays. He's an experienced MLS defender with some MLS quality play.
I have always been a fan of Rusty Pierce since he joined MLS and I was surprised to see him left unprotected in the expansion draft. It made my day when RSL drafted him. Pierce, I plead with you that you stay!!! Please don't go! You'll only end up coming back like a few others have this past year(Cannon, Thorton, Mathis???, etc.) OK, I'll stand up now!!!! GO ReAL!!!!!!
Looks like Rusty in going to be a RSLer in 2005. http://sports.bostonherald.com/soccer/view.bg?articleid=57300
