There's other information around MLS Monday, but none as crucial as the disaster in Boston. A few basketball celebrities found themselves cast into the national function, but nothing as suddenly as Matt Reis. It is unfortunate but possibly true that it sometimes requires a disaster to put things in perspective. Monday's bombings in Boston were a true catastrophe linked with a event, and although it was running not soccer, it'd a direct effect on the soccer world. First, and saddest, Revolution owner Matt Reis' father-in-law was among the several injured in the blasts (Soccer America). He was apparently in your community Reis' wife was running the workshop. Many of the members of the NWSL Boston Breakers area were also apparently in the region, but at the time of last reports all had checked in OK. (ProSoccerTalk) Meanwhile, many MLS and American soccer players weighed in with "thoughts and prayers" for the subjects and the people of Boston, since, well, what else can we all do such situations? (ProSoccerTalk) Speaking of stupid and sad abuse, a Timbers fan reported to police that he was attacked and after he organized his scarf at a group of Earthquakes supporters last week-end (KGW.com) his car vandalized. Police still collecting information. LA Galaxy supporters are abuzz this week after Arlo White reported on the game this week-end that Galaxy instructor Bruce Arena told him to anticipate an announcement soon of a brand new DP (LAG Confidential). The British press has added to the speculation with a study that Frank Lampard has delayed his planned June wedding, with most saying it is as a result of his "uncertain football future." One paper ties the postponement to an elevated financial supply from Galaxy (Daily Star). And finally, some good news as MLS average attendance ticked up somewhat last weekend (about 2 percent), thanks probably to keeping three Cascadia home matches in one single weekend, and Dallas' annual attendance surge when the Galaxy come calling (Business of Soccer).
