You have to hand it to Major League Soccer, they found a way to make soccer even more irrelevant in the United States, starting the season on the first night of March Madness. That’s right, the Red Bulls begin their season tonight against the Seattle Sounders FC. The Bulls are coming off a trip to the MLS Cup and their most successful season in franchise history. Repeating the success of last season will be tough though. Juan Pablo Angel is back and Danny Cepero is starting in goal for the suspended Jon Conway, but Dave van der Bergh is off to Dallas. They have added some youth, but can Juan Carlos Osorio pull off another coaching miracle? Then again, bet against the Red Bulls at your own risk.
