-Justin sent me a link to a story in the Guardian about the USA saying they want Man U boy-striker Guissepie Rossi to try out for the World Cup team. We know that The Bruce asked him to join the USA about 6 months ago and Rossi said no. So is this a new attempt, or old news?

-I missed this, but several people have sent me emails in the past hour asking if I heard MLS Commissioner Don Garber announce during the Superdraft that in the next 60 days the league would be granting a new expansion team in the Midwest. I can already hear it: "Stand Up If You Hate Milwaukee, Stand Up....."
-The front page at US Soccer today has a video link called "Thurs. Scrimmage". Check it out. Nice.

The pictures of the new jerseys are simply screen captures I grabbed off the MLSNet.com video stream of the fashion show.
It's funny how you post something somewhere on the internet and 4 hours later it shows up on someone else's blog that you yourself read.
The internet is way cool.
I heard that comment about the Midwest MLS team during the draft. I guess it could mean somewhere like Cleveland but I really got the feeling he meant Milwaukee.
mention the Scudetto. The Champion of MLS gets to wear it for the following season. if you look on the LAG kits, in the upper left corner there is a USA flag draped behind the MLS Cup
yes yes yes the scudetto
