LOL

Seba got on that list due to all the FIFA jockeys.

a party pack of timbits for anyone that takes out Pepe in spectacular fashion. I hate that douche bag.

Pepe is now at PSG.

Ah right its Besiktas. Hard to keep up with the transfers this season.

Two packs of timbits then ;)

It was fun watching TFC play them a few years ago. To see players of that caliber in real life is great fun even when they smash your team like...well....timbits. Raul and Kaka were ridiculous. And Gabe Gala slamming one home for the good guys :) (assist to Jonathan Edwards (thought it was Stef but he was subbed) on the goal by the way......)

Hopefully Seba finds a Sidney Crosby-esque reason to not play in the game (off the top of my head I believe Crosby has only played in a couple of all star games in his 12 years in the league).

This is one game/event I really don't care for any of our players taking part in, just like those damn useless midseason friendlies.

Players want to be in and take part because most of them get a significant bonus to be there. The MLS guys tend to take it more seriously then the opponent.

There are no hard tackles, but this is no NHL all star type farce either. More like the MLB all star.

That was a surly game. Was waiting for a full on brawl to break out.

See now this is somebody that may enjoy this match :). There are plenty more that just enjoy seeing top caliber international clubs compare to MLS but I still haven't watched one of these matches. Even though my "other" team played in it twice. It's nice we have players that are acknowledged to be top in our league but I wish we didn't have to risk them.
