    ... Not even a blurb in the back of the sports section (where I normally would find the soccer info). What gives?

    Since this is the MLS N&A forum, I assume your discussing the Wizards/Crew game in Edmond?

    Probably because MLS preseason games just don't rate - especially when the regional finals of the NCAA men and women's tournaments are raging.

    Well, I'll see what kind of preview they give for MLS

    and I'll take it from there. Besides, The US team playing in Seattle was comprised of alot of MLS players. I'll give them the benefit of a doubt about it being preseason and such

    Not that there was anything else happening in sports over the weekend...

    Baseball opening season
    TPC
    World Figure Skating championships
    NCAA Final 4 berths at stake (men's and women's)

    Shame, shame on USA Today for not finding room for a boring as hell 2-0 meaningless win by the US over the 150th ranked country in the world that only 18k people paid to see.

    That's it folks. The WC bubble has officially burst. No one cares about soccer anymore.

    The sky is falling.

    18,000 in Seattle on a beautiful day to see the US National team play the "most improved team in South America"

    10,000 in Oklahoma City on a cold and windy night to see a pre-seasson MLS game.

    Advantage: Oklahoma City
