MLS All Star roster is completed

posted by kidpurple July 15, 2008

Coach Steve Nicol added 5 players to the MLS All Star roster and commissioner Don Garber added his 2 commissioner picks to the squad that will face West Ham.

Nicol added Pablo Mastroeni, Juan Pable Angel, Jim Brennan, Christian Gomez and Pat Onstad. Garber choose Edson Buddle and Dwayne De Rosario.

So this is what the full squad looks like:

Goalkeeper: Pat Onstad (Houston Dynamo), Matt Reis (New England Revolution)

Defenders: Jim Brennan (Toronto FC), Jimmy Conrad (Kansas City Wizards), Frankie Hejduk (Columbus Crew), Michael Parkhurst (New England Revolution)

Midfielders: David Beckham (Los Angeles Galaxy), Cuauhtémoc Blanco (Chicago Fire), Dwayne De Rosario (Houston Dynamo), Christian Gomez (Colorado Rapids), Shalrie Joseph (New England Revolution), Sacha Kljestan (Chivas USA), Pablo Mastroeni (Colorado Rapids), Robbie Rogers (Columbus Crew)

Forwards: Juan Pablo Angel (forward, New York Red Bulls), Edson Buddle (Los Angeles Galaxy), Kenny Cooper (FC Dallas), Landon Donovan (Los Angeles Galaxy)

The bold names could be on an Olympic roster – so alternates will be named by Nicol soon.

Who is most deserving that isn’t on that list? Emilio? Schelotto?

Who would likely replace those 3 if they are not able to compete?

Last Remaining Team Without a Win is the Defending Champions

posted by kidpurple April 26, 2008

The defending champions Houston Dynamo are the only remaining team without a win on their record.  Tonight at 6:30 PM (CST) The Dynamo take on a hot Columbus Crew team who has 9 points from 4 games.

The Dynamo may still be without Pat Onstad in goal.  Houston Dynamo coach Dominic Kinnear would not say if Onstad would be back in goal tonight – he has been practicing all week.  The Dynamo will be without Eddie Robinson who is serving a 3 match suspension for actions taken in the Kansas City Wizards game.

Can the defending champions finally get a victory tonight, or will the Columbus Crew continue their hot streak and take all the points from Houston?
