    FIFA announced that the World Cup draw is going to be on May 24.

    The draw is going to be held after a match between the Chinese NT and a World all-star team.

    Of course, May 24 is a WUSA match day. It'll be interesting to see who's going to be on this Rest of the World XI.

    There are plenty of great players to staff a "World XI" team without going anywhere near WUSA.

    That's my point. Hopefully, FIFA won't feel the need to add WUSA players to the World XI for a meaningless exhibition game.

    It'll probably be no big deal, but you never know with bureaucrats.

    The World All-Star team will likely be the same deal as in 1999 - one player from each qualified country plus three from non-qualified countries. Send Reddick or O Reilly as the US Rep - but somehow I'm guessing they'll insist on Mia and Freedom will get screwed again...

    Hey, it's the least Mia can do for FIFA after they inexplicably made her POTY!
