Brandon Smith: “I think as the top league in the United States soccer right now, why wouldn't you want to participate with U.S. Soccer and the other leagues to make everything stronger?"
I can still see MLS teams using some of their second team players in the US Open Cup. Why take the chance of getting injuries to star players. Last year Gil was targeted in the game (non MLS season game) and had to come out. Are these CCC and US Open worth the risk for a trophy and cash to possibly lose a important player for the season?
Thank you for covering the Pioneers. I'm totally psyched for their season (in 3 months), they have a really nice little soccer specific stadium just east of Springfield.
