Why aren't any of these in Toronto?

Because Toronto would get destroyed if they played and MLSE knows they won't sell out if two other teams play.

Fan base is not very happy this year.

while im pretty excited that ESPN has taken interest into showing these games (even if it is ESPN3) im also a little bummed that they show more interest in showing a bunch of friendlies instead of more MLS games.

WE WANT MORE NATIONALLY TELEVISED GAMES FOR MLS

Cant wait to watch my first Chivas GDL game with english commentating tho.

Starts tomorrow.

Which match are you most looking forward to?

Will an MLS club win a game?

i'm looking forward to fire/man u since i'm going, madrid/la which i just think will be a good game and city/america which i just think is an interesting matchup.

i think mls teams will win at least 2 games

If United play MLS all stars I think Becks and Henry will play that game. Should be fun.

United looks rusty as hell. They missed a lot of opportunities.

But give NE credit, they manage to keep the game scoreless. And they are playing decently well.

Rooney, Berba & Vidic off.
Owen, Macheda & Rio in.

Some phenomenal passes to set up that goal.
