Spinoff plug

With this short post, I'm balancing a long serious post on soccer (and not wasting much valuable e-ink on this blog with it) with the shameless promotion of my occasionally-updated spinoff blog You're Not Singing Anymore.

In it, I comment on a lot of the recent talk of allowing MLS teams to compete in the Copa Libertadores, South America's version of the Champions League, and one of the most prestigious competitions in the world. It's a move that could potentially shake up the sport in this hemisphere. I suppose it would be the equivalent of giving CFL teams a shot at the Super Bowl...or Carribean League teams a chance to take on Major Leaguers.
