MLS un-veils the Almost-Stars

This is funny. MLS has announced 14 more "All-Stars" who will be inactive unless one of the previous named All-Stars is unable to participate. But notice this language from the press release:

The additional selections are considered MLS All-Stars, and will listed as such in official league records.


I bet the players on this list feel like when they were playing U-6 soccer and, hey, everyone will be getting a trophy this year because you all are so darn special. I wonder if Taylor Twellman's mom called to complain that he wasn't selected.

So here is your MLS All (in-active) Star team:
Kyle Beckerman (MF, Real Salt Lake); Jim Brennan (DF, Toronto FC); Jeff Cunningham (FW, Toronto FC); Danny Dichio (FW, Toronto FC); Brad Guzan (GK; Chivas USA); Frankie Hejduk (DF; Columbus Crew); Justin Mapp (MF; Chicago Fire); Ben Olsen (MF, D.C. United); Guillermo Barros Schelotto (MF, Columbus Crew); Steve Ralston (MF, New England Revolution); Claudio Reyna (MF, New York Red Bulls); Eddie Robinson (DF, Houston Dynamo); Taylor Twellman (FW, New England Revolution); Ronald Waterreus (GK, New York Red Bulls)

Wow, still no Pat Onstad. Who did he piss off?
