MLS All-Star Team Needs Whitecaps: Vote Now!

Let's face it, so far into this MLS campaign the Whitecaps haven't managed to shake off the "expansion team" feel. But no matter, it's time to be optimistic and talk about another topic! It's the MLS All-Star team which will be facing Manchester United, and I'm hoping to see some Caps in it. While it's pretty unlikely that any Whitecaps players are going to be voted into the team, as fans we have to try and get some Whitecaps players on the All-star team.

Only six Whitecaps players made the final nominees, DeMerit, Harris, Hassli, Camilo, Chiumiento and Rochat. I voted for all six of them (of course), and I hoping that all the Caps fans out there vote for them as well. And yes, that means you! Time to start supporting your Whitecaps players!

You might be asking yourself: 1. "how do I do this?", 2. "Do I have to sign up?", and 3. "Will my vote even make a difference?". 

Well, the answers are:

1. To vote go to the All-Star Ballot Page, and from there you can easily select a goalkeeper and ten players from the lists provided. Then, you simply click "vote".

2. No signing up required, it took me about 28.3 seconds to get to the page, pick the Whitecaps players, and click the "vote" button.

3. Of course your vote will make a difference! [Insert another cheesy line about every vote counting] Let's get some Vancouver Whitecaps players on that All-Star team!

Let's see if we can get some Caps out there against Manchester United when the All-Star game takes place at NYC. It's important to try and remain positive regarding the Caps season, and if a player got into the all-star team, it would be a huge boost of morale for all the Whitecaps.
