	Chicagoist: Major League Soccer All-Star Team Versus Chelsea in Chicago?
		Major League Soccer has played with a variety of different formats for All-Star games; from the traditional one division's best versus another, to pitting the best international MLS stars versus the best domestic MLS stars, and most recently putting the best MLS has to offer against another club team from abroad.
		Major League Soccer has made an effort to bring big games to new soccer-specific stadiums, and it would be a great win for Chicago to host this match.
		The All-Star game would be cool but I was hoping the Fire had architected a trade to get John O'Brien to come to the Fire rather than heading to one of the L.A. teams.
