Probably, but I'm not sure.

The aired the first round on ESPN 2, the rest is either on mlstvlive or Ives is doing a running commentary.....fuck the fatman from jersey.

 

[Jntg4]

Trade a 3rd round pick to Tornto FC for a player yet to be named.

 

[tonyni]

they take another forward with the 51st pick, Davis Paul out of California.

Last pick:
Cal F Davis Paul



Ives is such a fat cunt:

3:59

Ives:
Chicago Fire is stockpiling slow forwards. Maybe they really are trying to make Nery Castillo look faster by comparison.

 

[tonyni]

I quit following Ives. There's no point.

Trade a 3rd round pick to Tornto FC for a player yet to be named.

That a suggestion, or something that actually happened?

That.Just.Happened.

Yeah, they traded the pick for a player to be named later, which, thanks to an earlier trade by Toronto, means it can't be the return of Chad Barrett.

 

[giaco]

That happened, player still to be named.

 

[Jntg4]

Love Talladega Nights!

 

[Jntg4]

The player from Toronto FC is G Jon Conway.

 

[giaco]

Jon Conway b/c every team will have to have a 3rd GK. They are bringing back the reserve league---for which I am personally glad. I've had words with a few players from other teams DURING the reserves games--home and away. Good times.

By "no longer in camp", do you mean they were released, or just given no chance to make the MLS team this season?
