I think you're missing the point of the All Star game nowadays. It used to be MLS Cup, but now that All Star game is the one that's got a fixed date and a place to set everything up, the All Star game is where MLS FO gets to do their thing.It's not suppose to be anything meaningful, except some players get bonus for being named All Star and MLS FO gets to wine and dine and put on a dog and pony show for all the sponsors and anyone else MLS wants to butter up to.
