Sprinkles: Around the league

LA: Well, Monday has come and gone, so this report isn't entirely accurate. However, other sources have picked up on this rumor as well. It sure wouldn't shock me to see Yallop gone, although I'd have to say Alexi deserves to go first. Maybe they're giving them a chance to try to win the SuperLiga first...

Even better news for Gals fans, Becks is out for the SuperLiga final. And Alexi is popping off at the mouth again...

4:00 EDIT: Becks told Luis Bueno that he wants to play against Pachuca, make up your mind Gals.

DC: The same site that started the Yallop stuff is also reporting that DCU has been after Juan Roman Riquelme and Andriy Shevchenko. Sheva's wife has family in the DC area, but I don't see that one happening for a few years. Riquelme, who having problems finding a team, would be an awesome acquisition. I'm pretty sure DC will end up getting Juan Sebastian Veron for next season though...

Also, has Bobby Boswell fallen out with Coach Soehn? He seems to have lost his spot for the time being. I bet teams have been throwing offers out to try to get him.

Dallas: The Hoops have added Brazilian playmaker Denilson to an already dangerous squad. The former Real Betis star is only 30 (I could've sworn he was older than that, he looked like it during the last season I saw him with Betis) and should add some serious firepower to the Dallas attack. He's the fifth Designated Player to join the league.

St. Louis: The city is getting closer and closer to finalizing stadium plans in hopes of bringing MLS to town.

Philadelphia: The City of Brotherly Love is also getting in on the expansion action...
