For anyone that didnt see the game yesterday, the MLS allstar team beat Chelsea, a team which is arguably the best soccer team on Earth right now. They won 1-0 and without the support of Landon Donavan or Eddie Pope. Chelsea's total payroll exceeds 200,000 million dollars in salary to its players. It has big name soccer stars like Terry, Essien, Ballack, and Robben in its lineup...

This is like the Brewers beating the Yankees. O.o

The Brewers beating the Yankees... in a meaningless exhibition tour match

Yeah, but a US team beating an English team, especially Chelsea just doesn't happen. USA never used to be in this caliber of play.

Apparently Chelsea has more money than the budget of most third world nations...combined.
