I could see this leading to the keeper/ captain being mic'd to the bench which I quite like.This needs to die ASAP.
Why can't people leave some things for the imagination. In the US everything needs to be commercialized. Just like the NBA interviews of players / coaches during the game breaks and cameras in tunnels and dressing rooms. Commentators
How long before Aubameyang yells to the camera: "this goal was brought to you by Wallmart, 30% off on Diapers" during his goal celebration. Of course Lord Bendtner was way ahead of his time with his undies celebration.

Overreaction levels were a little high in my post, but I really hope they stay away from that.It's just an all-star game. I don't think you're going to be seeing it during actual competitive matches. Just a curiosity.

Didn't the NHL do something a while back where one of the broadcast channels miked up the coaches, and then quickly abandoned that due to the constant swearing?Overreaction levels were a little high in my post, but I really hope they stay away from that.

A bit of Rooney magic.
That was special. I feel guilty that I have not been to the new stadium yet. Seen it from the outside and it seems amazing.
Things have been sort of stagnant at DC United for quite awhile now. The new stadium and Rooney's presence seems to have energized things quite a bit. There will be times Rooney struggles to keep up with the pace against some of the more athletic teams (Atlanta, for instance), but as long as he's still capable of moments of brilliance he'll give the fans hope of something better.
Sort of stagnant? You are being charitable, lol. Been a DCU fan since the early days and the brilliance of Etchevery, RDA, Pope and Moreno, the franchise has been in a deep hole the last 10 yrs. The new stadium though is a giant step in the right direction. Hopefully the club will bring more talent next season next to Rooney.
Was Bradley Wright, son of Ian Wright, wasted at MLS?
He scored over 100 goals in MLS.
Rooney with two more goals tonight. FK for one of them. Had a chip off the bar too.
He's quickly starting to be a dominant player in the league now that he's getting more fit. Guy is working his ass off as well.
That last part is the key. Sometimes big name guys come over not realizing what a young, athletic, fast-paced league it is and they think they can coast (the general narrative in England has always been that MLS is a "retirement league," when in fact it's a younger league than the PL). Gerrard and Lampard both struggled to adjust. Gerrard even admitted that he was surprised by the standard. But Rooney is taking this seriously. His work rate has helped him to overcome the limitations of aging and he's getting the best out of the ball skills that made him such a great player in the first place.
