The MLS season is over so there are fewer players now, and it also means that some players start to move to new teams. Two former Wizards made moves today. First, Shavar Thomas was selected by Philadelphia in today's expansion draft and will be heading east to play for the Union. The other former Wizard to move today, was Abe Thompson, who was waived by Houston, but in turn was picked up by Real Salt Lake in the waiver draft. Meanwhile, two former Wizards picked up winners medals this past week. Yura Movsisyan in his last game inn MLS won MLS Cup with Real Salt Lake, while Chris Konopka was on the bench for Sporting Fingal in the FAI Ford Cup.

Antti Sumiala played for FC PoPa, a club which he actually owns and more or less runs nowadays. Season 2009 was club's first at the First Division (2nd highest level in Finland) and they finished 4th. Antti scored four goals. I think he's probably considering to play one more season, but we'll see.
Thanks for the update, I knew he'd been playing for PoPa, but hadn't realized he was the owner and basically ran the club, that's cool.
