The nominees in the category of Best Major League Soccer Player at the ESPYs have been announced.  I don’t know how much of a season these awards are supposed to cover.  Being that the award show takes place on July 16th it seems odd that they would be based on this current season, and it is kinda late to give awards for last season, so maybe it covers anything that happened in they year 2006, or possibly just the past year since July 2006.

The nominees are Jeff Cunningham, Christian Gomez, Landon Donavan and Matt Reis.  If the award covers the past season, I think it goes to Jeff Cunningham.  Gomez was the MVP last year, but that is different than a best player award.  Cunningham was the leagues top goal scorer on a bottom of the league team.

Who do you think deserves the award?
