Major League Soccer will expand its regular season and roster sizes in 2011.
More is more, according to Major League Soccer.
With the additions of Vancouver and Portland next season, MLS has announced that it will
feature a 34-match schedule in 2011. The new schedule gives each club an additional four matches
after employing a 30-match season since 2007.
The Super Semifinal in the WPS Playoffs is over, and no matter if the winning goal was scored with
a hand or not, the final 2-1 result for the Philly Independence means that six Boston Breakers will
be joining U.S. WNT camp on Sunday. The USA will say hello to Lauren Cheney, Stephanie Cox, Amy
LePeilbet, Kristine Lilly, Alyssa Naeher and Lindsay Tarpley.
The state's top men's amateur league, the Wisconsin Adult Soccer Association Major League,
starts its 2010-11 season next weekend.
The league includes 10 teams this season, two more than in recent years, with the additions of
Milwaukee Brewers FC and USA Palermo. Those teams played in the WASA Reserve League last season,
with the Brewers going 12-1-5 and winning the regular-season title before being upset in the
playoffs.
The mighty Hercules havearrived folks! Just a week or two back I joked about the new boys name
and questioned whether or not they could live up to such a well respected title and also
wondered if the club would have the staying power in La Liga this year. Well I think it is safe to
say yes they can.

When you're hired to replace a successful head coach, particularly when that coach was dumped
rather than retired or quit, you had better do at least as well as your predecessor.
By any measure, Carlos De Los Cobos has failed as Chicago Fire head coach since replacing Denis
Hamlett, who was let go despite two successful seasons in charge.
