Isn't it a little ironic that in the MLS All-Star Game, Arsenal didn't even play its stars? It should have been called the Half-Star Game, or better yet the Our League is Insecure About Itself Game.
Dallas was all prepared to sell Fabian Castillo to a Turkish team, but the latest reports are that deal is now off. I, for one, am extremely happy that this is the case. Dallas is the best team in the league, and Castillo is its best player. If you're a regular reader of this blog, then you might remember a column I wrote about Cyle Larin that argued that Orlando shouldn't sell him and instead keep him (you may also remember that column for a half-baked title, which compared Larin to LeBron James).
