PrintJapan is facing one of the worst crises the world has ever seen. I don't think that's hyperbole. They need the help of the world, specifically yours, specifically mine. I was proud to see Major League Soccer announce today that MLS W.O.R.K.S. is partnering up with the American and Canadian Red Cross to give support for the disaster relief efforts following the earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan last week. Donations can be made in the United States by texting REDCROSS to 90999 or donating online at RedCross.org or in Canada by texting ASIA to 30333 or donating online at RedCross.ca. MLS W.O.R.K.S. has even set up a bidding website that allows you to bid on MLS memorabilia with all funds going to the disaster relief. If you can, please donate. It is times like these that remind us that there is more to life than soccer. There is more to the world than Chicago.

No Fire Merch
There doesn’t seems to be any FIRE merchendise up for bid. Could Chicago really not even donte a ball or something to this cause?
As soon as I saw the bid site
and didn’t see anything from the Fire, I sent a message to the team. They are working on it.
However, 24 hours later and they still have the same 13 items up. This could be a plan with great intentions but poor execution. All 13 items look like something that could have been picked up or left over from the 2010 MLS Cup. I do understand what you are saying but right now I would hold back criticism.
