    Default MLS all-star 2015 game thread

    Can you feel the excitement mount?
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    I'm glad Gio won't play and Jozy will get an extra training session in to hopefully gain better fitness. This is probably the best scenario for us

    Worthless game that has the potential to screw somebody's carreer.

    yes indeed. Seba can hang around and schmooze with MLS players and bigwigs, and we don't have to worry about him getting hurt. JA probably will get a half at most, probably less.

    I might find these a bit more entertaining if they'd do away with MLS vs top European club setup. Am I the only one that finds this belittles the league if they actually want it to be ranked among the best in the world one day?

    If the MLS is insistent on an ASG, I'd personally find it more entertaining if we did NBA-style (east vs west) or NHL-style (captains pick teams from group voted in). Somewhat for the reason above but also so there'd be a bit more fun, tricks, chemistry and less about a competitive match. I'd feel there's be a smaller chance of injury this way too; the game would be more of a showcase.

    Is there currently a skills competition? Even that would be more interesting (ie. EA FIFA challenges sorta thing).

    I find it annoying how the first question to every new player from Europe is: How much better is MLS than you expected?

    MLS: "Do I look fat in this dress?"

    Euro Star: "Uhhhhh......you look great...?...are we done here?"

    He wanted more money than they could give him. I'd look at him for sure if I was Bez.

    I wonder how much money the MLS wastes on these.

    Jozy not brought on at half. Glad Bradley and Giovinco were kept out and glad Jozy gets minimal minutes.

    Thanks! In the end I decided that keeping the wife happy & painting the basement was more important.

    I just watched the highlights. The new 4 minute highlights for all MLS games are useless; they used to be 6 or 10 minutes. Did Jozy do anything useful when he came on. (That question not directed to Ryan who wasn't watching.)

    Again, sorry. This game was beyond pointless.
