	FOXSports.com - SOCCER- The MLS expansion draft is only the first step in a new team's identity
		But of course, the Chicago Fire won MLS Cup 1998 in their inaugural season, while the Fusion finished fourth in the Eastern Conference and were eliminated in the opening round of the playoffs.
		If one were to judge the performance of the league's last two newly-created clubs just a week after the 1997 MLS expansion draft, it would have looked as though the Miami Fusion got the better of things.
		At the time of the league's first expansion draft, the selection of established starters like David Vaudreuil, Matt Kmosko, and Cle Kooiman by Miami appeared to be a lot smarter than Chicago's choice of reserves such as Zach Thornton and Diego Gutierrez.

	Adu adds sparkle to MLS All-Star Game - - MSNBC.com
		After all, the game is an exhibition played for fun, and thatâs why the 15-year-old rookie, who has started just seven games and scored only two goals for D.C. United, was a special pick by commissioner Don Garber to play for the Eastern Conference in Saturdayâs MLS All-Star Game at RFK Stadium.
		Actually, the free-spirited play of an All-Star game should be a perfect fit for Adu, whose creative, flowing style doesnât quite mesh in a conservative league in which 30 of 92 games this season have ended in ties.
		All-Star games in every sport are not about the best players.
