Major League Soccer is at an interesting time in its development as a league. While it’s recruited the likes of Didier Drogba, Sebastian Giovinco, Giovani dos Santos and Kaka, the enterprise nevertheless remains dependent on more modestly paid mere mortal players developed through college and in the league. The MLS All-Star Game increasingly features the former group, though it’s still fun to see the odd local product feature against Europe’s best.
In the current version of MLS, tare moments where those squad players create magic on par with their multi-million-dollar colleagues. And then there are moments where everybody looks silly, including World Cup winners.
