If I were to start a new team...

I was asking myself in the shower, "If I were to make a team, picking one, and only one, player from each MLS club..who would I take and how would my team look?" I know, I know, I really gotta start daydreaming about other, more normal, stuff...like winning the lottery. So, here's my picks from each team and how my team would shape up. Chicago Fire - Patrick Nyarko (F/W) C.D. Chivas USA - Jonathan Bornstein (D) Colorado Rapids - Conor Casey (F) Columbus Crew - Andy Iro (D) D.C. United - Andy Najar (W) FC Dallas - David Ferreira (MF) Houston Dynamo - Geoff Cameron (D/M) Kansas City Wizards - Ryan Smith (W/MF) Los Angeles Galaxy - Landon Donovan (M/F) New England Revolution - Marko Perović (MF) New York Red Bulls – Thierry Henry (F) Philadelphia Union - Jordan Harvey (D) Real Salt Lake - Kyle Beckerman (MF) San Jose Earthquakes - Ike Opara (D) Seattle Sounders FC - Kasey Keller (G) Toronto FC - Stefan Frei (G) -----------Casey------Henry--------- ---------------Donovan-----...

US National Team (What if?)

Question of the day...If all of the USA's best athletes were to play soccer, who would comprise the US National Team's Roster? Would it be mostly basketball players with their size and footwork? Would it be football players for their strength and agility? Would any baseball players or hockey players make the team? Would any current US National Team players be on the team? What formation would you use? Who would captain the team? Here's how I would see it (I chose each player based upon how good I think they would have been if they had played soccer their entire lives instead of their respective sports.)... -------------Kobe Bryant-----------Jozy Altidore------------------ -------------------------Chris Drury(C)------------------------------- -Champ Bailey--------------------------------------Allen Iverson-- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -------Troy Tulowitzki-----------------LeBron James--------------- ------------------------...
