This week is the introduction of The Forbidden Cupcake. This is a question that, if you are smart enough to know, will earn you the eternal respect of the Cupcakes staff.
Have at it:
1. Name the two players from the 1994 U.S. World Cup team to never play in MLS.
2. Who holds the record for being the youngest person to play goalkeeper in an MLS match?
3. Dallas Burn, Odense BK, Columbus Crew, Colorado Rapids, Montreal Impact (current). Whose career path?
4. Who is this "Yank Abroad"?
5. Name two of the three players to score a penalty kick goal in an MLS All-Star Game.
And now, The Forbidden Cupcake:
6. Name the only player to score a goal in the only game he ever played in MLS.
Answers are posted in the comments section.

1. Current Colorado coach Fernando Clavijo and current California Victory assistant Hugo Perez.
2. Eddie Gaven, in 2003. This comes courtesy of the old MLS rule that allowed teams to use a fourth sub for the goalkeeper only. Tim Howard was moved to forward, while Gaven was subbed in as a goalkeeper. After about a minute in goal, Gaven and Howard switched to their normal positions, and Gaven went on to score the game-winner in overtime against D.C. United.
3. Goalkeeper Matt Jordan, who recently signed with Montreal.
4. Kamani Hill of VfL Wolfsburg in Germany. Hill played at UCLA with current Toro Rojo Marvell Wynne and Benny Feilhaber of Hamburg SV.
5. Claus Jensen (for Fulham, 2005), Amado Guevara (East All-Stars, 2004), and Joe-Max Moore (East All-Stars, 1999).
6. Michael Butler, for the MetroStars in 2001. Butler was on loan from Long Island of the A-League and scored the game-winner in the MetroStars 2-1 win over Dallas.
