 Chicagoist: Major League Soccer All-Star Team Versus Chelsea in Chicago?
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.
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.
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.

 GameCube Europe - FIFA Soccer 2002: Major League Soccer Review
This time round, FIFA 2002 has over 400 teams and 16 leagues including the English Premier League, German Bundesliga, Spanish Premier League, the French LNF, and Major League Soccer.
FIFA 2002 suffers from a limited amount of stadiums to choose from, little weather and time of day conditions and the frustrating inability to assign players to controllers in multiplayer matches.
FIFA Soccer 2002 seems to have rectified all this though, introducing many new and improved features to the game, making it enjoyable and fulfilling game to play.

 SportsBiz: Major League Soccer still minor - Oct. 19, 2001
"There are very few teams in the world, even major clubs, that don't have to worry their best players will get a better offer somewhere else," said Kevin Payne, the general manager of DC United, the league's most popular team.
But even with top-flight ownership, the league is saddled with a perception, which is the reality, that its players aren't the best.
Regular season nationally-broadcast games on ESPN2 got an average 0.2 rating this year, and with local broadcasts the league reached an average of 138,000 households per game.

 New season, new name game for Major League Soccer: 3/ 30/ 2005
Meanwhile, the league continues to hinge its financial future on new, soccer-only stadiums that put teams in a position to break even -- and perhaps turn a profit.
There's a funky new look to the Major League Soccer standings this year, at least to the sport's uninitiated.
But, to soccer fans, it's a warm, familiar look -- another sign the adolescent league has stopped trying to Americanize the beautiful game and is more determined than ever to march in step with the rest of the world as it begins its 10th season Saturday.

 Major League Soccer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
American soccer leagues have not generally been considered to be successes, for a variety of reasons.
When the league was started, most teams played in stadiums built specifically for NFL or NCAA (college) American football.
Unlike most other nations, there is currently no system of promotion and relegation in American soccer; although repeated suggestions for such a system have been made, such an organization does not exist in any sport in America, and the disparity in attendance between divisions makes such a vertical integration impractical.

 A Historical Overview of American Soccer History
Interestingly, this league was not promoted by any of the existing soccer associations, but was formed by a group of professional baseball owners from the National league, and was intended to fill the baseball stadiums during down time.
Soccer was relatively inexpensive as well as democratic -- it did not require specialists, tall players or behemoths as many of the other sorts did, and youth soccer did not have the overly competitive stigma and the political mudslinging that was plaguing Little League baseball and Pop Warner football.
Their new league was then christened Major League Soccer.

 IFG Projects: Chicago Fire Soccer Stadium
Since the opening of the successful Home Depot Center in Carson, California, Major League Soccer (MLS) and the Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), owner of 4 of the 10 existing MLS franchises, have decided to focus their efforts on developing state-of-the-art soccer-specific stadiums for all of their existing and soon-to-be-identified teams.
IFG personnel were engaged by AEG to develop an initial marketing survey and study, and conduct an RFP process in which 195 municipal representatives from over 90 Chicago-area communities eventually competed for the right to finance and develop the proposed 25,000-seat $70 million soccer-specific facility.
Because of the Chicago area’s large multi-racial population and rabid professional sports fan base together with the Chicago Fire’s 3-year number one ranking and attendance records (second only to the LA Galaxy), AEG decided that the Fire was the next logical candidate for their own stadium.

 The Eddie Robinson of 2003? - BigSoccer Boards

Recall that Robinson contributed in spot duty in 2001 (I recall an early season fixture at Miami that Eddie had to fill in I believe for Agoos, and performed solidly, for example).
Therefore, to qualify for the "Eddie" award of 2003, it would by definition have to be a player who showed some promise with contributing performances in 2002.
