MLS and The Cam Weaver Saga

Major League Soccer Roster Deadline Has Passed And... As College to Pros reports, the Cam Weaver situation at the Colorado Rapids doesn't look good for the Rapids. Major League Soccer's roster deadline has passed and there hasn't been an announcement regarding his signing yet. There's some speculation that the league may have signed him, he just hasn't been matched up with a team yet. I'm not sure if that's possible since the roster deadline has passed. MLS fans have good reason to be cycnical over the league's rules. Throughout it's history the MLS has done a lot of things that seem to favor it's large market team like the LA Galaxy, New York Red Bulls (ex- Metrostars), and even DC United. The league owned franchise Tampa Bay made several moves that involved shipping it's best players off to other clubs. But those moves seem to be more of a thing of the past. I don't think any teams will find their way around the roster deadline this time around.
