2010 MLS Fantasy League

E-mail Print PDF

The 2010 MLS season is only a few weeks away, so I'm here to drum up interest for our second annual fantasy league. I won't have official rules until I get a set amount of participants, as well as what format we're going to be playing under, since the league hasn't set up the official fantasy site yet. So, if you're interested in participating, please post below as soon as you can.

However, there's one catch. To receive sign-up information and be officially entered into the league, you have to be a member of our forum. Click on the "MCS forum" link above to sign up. (you can also express your interest HERE once you have joined)

Green Soccer Bowl at the Silverdome

E-mail Print PDF

The Pontiac Silverdome is back open for business in May, and - as promised - it will be for a soccer event! As reported by the Detroit Free Press, the inaugural Green Soccer Bowl will take place on May 20 and 21 and involve four national teams in an international friendly. World Cup-bound Ghana is scheduled to take part, as well as Kenya, Malaysia, and Puerto Rico. It is the brainchild of Pius Oleh, a former defender for Nigeria's senior national team. The owners of the Silverdome, Triple Sports & Entertainment (which, if you remember, we have been in contact with), have released a statement regarding this tournament:

"We are pleased and excited by the selection of the Silverdome as the site for the 2010 Green Soccer Bowl. We look forward to hosting a friendly competition between world-class athletes as the Silverdome has done so many times in the past. In the coming months, we will be talking more about our plans for the Silverdome and its operation as a sports and entertainment venue."

So, what do you think about the idea? Are you excited about world-class soccer coming back to Detroit once again? Do you think it might be a waste of an effort? Tell us about it! In the meantime, stay tuned here to the Motor City Supporters website as more information comes out about the event, or go to their official website, GreenSoccerBowl.com.
